Your consultation
Your journey to wellness begins with your consultation, tailored to your preference — be it in-person or over the phone. Our experienced team will be there to guide you, step by step.
Our 4-step process to varicose veins treatment
Assess
Call 0800 45 45 88 to schedule your consultation. Your journey starts with a vascular ultrasound scan, which provides a detailed map of your veins. This non-invasive scan helps identify problem areas and equips the surgeon with all the information needed to plan your treatment effectively. By completing this step before your consultation, we streamline the process and set the stage for precise and efficient care for varicose veins and other vascular conditions.
Consult
During your consultation Mr Evans will review your vascular ultrasound results, assess your varicose veins and create a personalised treatment plan. Most varicose vein treatments and vascular procedures are covered by health insurers, making expert care accessible. This is also a chance to ask questions about recovery, risks, costs and expected outcomes, ensuring you feel confident and informed about your treatment journey.
Treat
Your treatment will involve a minimally invasive procedure designed to address your varicose veins effectively, with minimal down time. Mr Evans uses medical-grade adhesive to seal and close off the varicose veins, improving circulation and reducing symptoms. If necessary, smaller veins can also be treated with sclerotherapy during the same session. The entire procedure, including recovery, takes around 90 minutes.
After treatment, you’ll wear thigh-high compression stockings for 10 days to support healing and maintain healthy blood flow.
Follow up
After your treatment, rest for a few days and walk briefly every hour to aid recovery and support your circulatory system. Avoid strenuous activities like heavy lifting or intense exercise. A nurse will check in within a few days to monitor your progress. For added reassurance, we offer a post-treatment ultrasound scan to show the progress of your treatment. Mr Evans will schedule a follow-up consultation around six weeks after treatment to discuss your results and maintain your vascular health. For more details, visit our FAQs page.
