Spider Veins Treatment Oxfordshire

Spider veins are fine dilated veins most commonly appearing on the surface of the thigh and are red, blue or purple in colour. Approximately 1 in 3 women are affected by these, however men can also suffer from them. Varicose veins are swollen veins that tend to be larger and more prominent than spider veins. Both problems can be very distressing, with symptoms including aching, restless legs, swollen feet/ankles and night cramps. Don’t suffer in silence if you are affected by leg veins. With our advanced laser treatments and sclerotherapy procedure, you can achieve incredible results, drastically improving the appearance of your legs. At the Chiltern Medical Clinic, leg vein treatments – including venous ulceration – are administered byDr Stephen Tristram, who is an Associate Specialist in Vascular Surgery. Dr Tristram has appeared on BBC Television’s The One Show discussing the treatment of varicose veins and demonstrating an innovative non-surgical technique which is available in our clinics.

Not all types of leg veins need to be treated. The purpose of a consultation is to determine which of the treatments might be suitable for you, and to discuss the benefits and risks of each. During a consultation you will be offered a choice of treatments, but Dr Tristram will also give you his opinion of the most appropriate way of dealing with your problem.
