Understanding Vein Problems

Vein problems are more common than many people realize. They affect both men and women of all ages, though risk increases with genetics, pregnancy, prolonged standing, obesity, and ageing.

Healthy veins carry blood efficiently from the legs back to the heart. When the tiny valves inside these veins weaken, blood can pool and cause the veins to enlarge — a condition known as venous insufficiency.

The most common symptoms include:

• Swelling and heaviness in the legs

• Visible bulging or twisted veins

• Leg cramps, aching, or itching

• Skin discolouration around the ankles

• Restlessness or discomfort after standing

If left untreated, varicose veins can progress to chronic venous disease, potentially causing skin ulcers or more serious complications. The good news is that early treatment can relieve discomfort, prevent worsening, and improve the appearance of your legs.

Why Early Treatment Matters

Treating vein disease early can dramatically improve your quality of life. Patients who seek help sooner often experience:

• Faster recovery times

• Better cosmetic results

• Lower risk of recurrence

• Prevention of chronic complications

Ontario Vascular’s minimally invasive approach means there’s no need for hospital admission or extended downtime. Most procedures are performed in our clinic under local anesthesia — allowing you to return to daily activities the same day.

Ontario Vascular’s Vein Clinic Approach

At Ontario Vascular Vein Clinic, we believe every patient deserves personalized care. The journey begins with a comprehensive diagnostic assessment, which includes a detailed consultation and an ultrasound examination to evaluate blood flow and vein structure.

Dr. Figueroa then develops a tailored treatment plan based on your condition, lifestyle, and goals. Whether your concern is pain, swelling, or appearance, our focus remains the same: providing lasting relief and beautiful results without unnecessary surgery. We combine clinical excellence with compassion — ensuring patients feel informed, comfortable, and confident at every step.

Advanced Vein Treatments at Ontario Vascular

1. Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT)

EVLT is a gold-standard, non-surgical procedure that uses laser energy to close diseased veins from within. Guided by ultrasound, a thin laser fibre is inserted into the affected vein, delivering precise energy that causes the vein to seal and redirect blood to healthier pathways.

Benefits of EVLT:

• Minimally invasive — no stitches or scars

• Quick procedure (typically under one hour)

• Local anesthetic only

• Immediate symptom relief

• Resume normal activities the same day

Ontario Vascular uses the latest EVLT systems to ensure precision and comfort. Learn more about EVLT.

2. Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy remains one of the most effective treatments for spider veins and smaller varicose veins. The procedure involves injecting a safe, specialized solution into the vein, causing it to collapse and gradually fade from view. Patients often notice visible improvement after just one or two sessions. It’s a quick, office-based procedure with no downtime, perfect for those seeking smoother, more even skin tone.

Sclerotherapy not only enhances appearance but also improves circulation and leg comfort. Book your sclerotherapy consultation.

3. Ultrasound-Guided Vein Therapy

For deeper or more complex veins, ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy offers added precision. Using real-time imaging, Dr. Figueroa targets problem veins that aren’t visible on the surface.

This ensures every treated vein receives the right dosage and placement — leading to better outcomes and long-term success.

FAQs About Vein Treatment

1. Are varicose veins dangerous?

In most cases, varicose veins are not life-threatening, but they can worsen over time and lead to chronic venous insufficiency or ulcers. Early evaluation prevents complications.

2. Is treatment painful?

Procedures like EVLT and sclerotherapy are minimally invasive and performed under local anesthesia. Most patients experience only mild discomfort and can resume normal activity right away.

3. Will my veins come back after treatment?

Once treated, diseased veins are permanently closed. However, new veins can form over time, especially if underlying risk factors remain. Regular follow-ups help maintain results.

4. How much does treatment cost at Ontario Vascular Vein Clinic?

Costs vary depending on the treatment type and severity. Ontario Vascular provides transparent pricing and payment options during your consultation. Book your consultation.
