As summer approaches, the number of people concerned about varicose veins increases due to the opportunity to go barefoot more often. Many individuals who struggle with prominent varicose veins rush to see a doctor and seek treatment. At The Varicose Vein Clinic TOKYO, we utilize the latest technology in varicose vein surgery, offering treatments that do not require cutting the skin.
Features of Varicose Vein Surgery at The Varicose Vein Clinic TOKYO
1. Non-invasive Treatment: At The Varicose Vein Clinic TOKYO, we primarily perform varicose vein surgery using a laser catheter. The catheter we use is a slim fiber, with a diameter of just 1.27mm. This slim fiber can treat even the most twisted varicose veins, allowing for surgery without cutting the skin. Because there is no need for skin incisions, post-operative scars are minimal and barely noticeable.
2. No Need for Suture Removal: Traditional varicose vein surgery involved making skin incisions to remove the varicose veins, which required skin suturing. However, with the treatment method at The Varicose Vein Clinic TOKYO, there is no need to cut the skin, and therefore no need for sutures or suture removal, reducing the burden on patients after surgery.
3. Short Recovery Period: Non-invasive treatments are characterized by less pain and faster recovery compared to traditional surgery. Patients can return to their normal daily activities the day after surgery and continue with their work and hobbies.
4. Less Noticeable Varicose Veins: After treatment, the prominent varicose veins become less noticeable. With minimal surgical scars, patients can confidently go barefoot even in the summer.
Treatment Process for Varicose Veins
1. Initial Consultation and Diagnosis: For first-time patients, we conduct a detailed interview and ultrasound examination to assess the condition of the varicose veins. We then determine the best treatment method and create a treatment plan.
2. Surgery: At our clinic, varicose vein surgery is performed on an outpatient basis without the need for hospitalization. The surgery is done under local anesthesia, and sedatives are also used to ensure that patients do not experience anxiety or pain during the treatment.
3. Post-operative Care: After surgery, we support recovery through the use of appropriate compression stockings and regular check-ups. We provide thorough post-operative advice and follow-up care.
