Men are just as likely as women to develop vein disease and its accompanying symptoms if they stand for long periods of time daily for their job or if they have a family history of vein disease.

Treatment for varicose and spider veins in men is the same as it is for women. In most cases, insurance benefits will cover a large part of the cost of treatment.

At Varicose to Perfect in Springboro, Dr. Sinnathamby will evaluate your vein health using ultrasound and consult when necessary with your regular physician to ensure a comprehensive approach to treatment recommendations. Treating varicose veins can be an important part of maintaining overall physical health: patients with painful, heavy legs as a result of varicose veins may become more sedentary and raise their risk of complications.

Vein treatment for men:

• Vein Gogh
• EVLT: endovenous laser treatment
• Ambulatory phlebectomy

These non and minimally invasive procedures can be completed in our Springboro treatment center with little down time. In most cases, patients can drive themselves home after a procedure and resume normal daily activity (with certain restrictions on vigorous activities) the next day!

As our bodies age, men and women alike experience the deterioration and thinning of skin that causes varicose veins. These veins tend to protrude from the skin and become more visible as the skin loses its ability to keep them covered. While it is a natural part of aging, many people find varicose veins to be an embarrassing indication of their age. For these people, treatment is available to reduce the appearance of varicose veins.

Hand veins can be easily treated with a minimally invasive procedure that poses no significant health risks to the individual. There are two types of treatments available: injections and phlebectomy.

Injection therapy is a process in which hand veins are directly injected with FDA-approved and safe medications to reduce their appearance. Some patients fear that this treatment will affect blood flow to the hand and arm, but experts like those in Springboro, Ohio know which veins to preserve. The entire process is virtually pain-free, and you can drive yourself home after each treatment. This is usually done over the course of a year.

Ambulatory phlebectomy (also known as hook phlebectomy) is an in-office procedure done under local anesthesia. In this method, a doctor creates a small incision through which varicose veins are removed with hooks. This procedure is usually completed within one visit, and it does not run the risk of darkened skin as can sometimes occur after injections.

Injection therapy is more commonly sought after for hand vein treatment, but phlebectomy is the more effective and faster method. You don’t have to wear your age on your hands; getting back to those perfect hand veins is possible with either of these treatments.

Spider and varicose veins affect both men and women, but women frequently seek treatment to reduce their visibility and feel better about their overall appearance.

Treatment options today can enable patients to achieve both cosmetic and health related goals, typically offering lasting results. Dr. Sinnathamby will perform a thorough exam to determine the health of a patient’s veins and discuss their cosmetic goals with them before recommending treatment.

For patients seeking spider vein treatment, Dr. Sinnathamby is one of a few area physicians offering the Vein Gogh procedure. Using high frequency bursts of electrical energy, the Vein Gogh procedure collapses the vessel wall without affecting the skin surface, leaving no scarring and little to no down time. Vein Gogh is also safe and effective for treating facial veins.

Vein Gogh has been a revolutionary tool in the treatment of spider veins, offering consistent results superior to traditional methods that are more appropriate for varicose veins. For patients with telangiectasia of the face, nose or extremities, Vein Gogh can help them achieve their cosmetic goals and reduce or eliminate the visibility of tiny veins and blood vessels.

A life well lived can introduce scars and wrinkles into our face and body. Some we can wear with pride, while others simply mar our appearance and take a toll on our self-esteem. Varicose veins and spider veins are often the undesirable result of hormonal changes, weight gain, and pressure on legs, sun exposure, injury, or something else that has weakened or damaged the veins and altered the blood flow. When these unsightly scars appear, there are many options to minimize their appearance. However, some of these treatment options can be painful and can have lots of adverse effects, including the creation of new scars.

At Varicose to Perfect, a vein treatment center in Springboro, Ohio, a state-of-the-art technology is transforming the process of clearing the appearance of varicose veins and spider veins. The Vein Gogh System is minimally invasive, comfortable, and safe. Using a fine needle to deliver bursts of energy to the affected site, the blood coagulates and the vein collapses leaving the look of beautiful, clear skin. The process is quick and renders immediate results. For the first time there is a system that is powerful enough to handle badly damaged veins in the legs and other parts of the body and gentle enough to use on the delicate areas near the eyes and nose.

Dr. Sukir Sinnathamby opened Varicose to Perfect in June of 2006. He is a Board-certified physician specializing in non-invasive evaluations, diagnostic angiograms, and vascular procedures. In his practice, he is able to treat not only varicose veins but other related issues for a thorough evaluation and treatment.

What is sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a common, minimally invasive injection used to reduce the apperance of spider and varicose veins. With nearly a 95% success rate, sclerotherapy is highly recommended for the successful reduction of unsightly veins.

How does sclerotherapy work to reduce the visibility of varicose veins?

Sclerotherapy is a direct injection of a sclerosing agent into the affected veins. The sclerosing agent irritates the veins and forces them to collapse reducing the appearance of the vein on the skin’s surface.

How long does the sclerotherapy treatment last?

Treatment sessions are typically 15 to 20 minutes long. Treatment times will vary depending on the severity, location, and the number of varicose veins present. 

How many treatments of sclerotherapy will I need for optimal results?

Some patients may require multiple treatments, while others will see permanent results after just one injection appointment. Dr. Sinthanby will discuss the number of sessions required to meet your goals based on your personal health and condition status. 

Does the sclerotherapy treatment hurt?

Most patients report that their sclerotherapy treatments are comfortable and that they experience little to no discomfort. Dr. Sinthanby has a gentle bedside manner helping patients feel comfortable and confident in their treatment choice. 

Spider veins are a venous disorder that unsightly bulging veins.  Spider veins and other venous diseases can be a health risk and should be treated by a vein doctor, but are more commonly a cosmetic concern. 

Spider veins and venous disorders are highly common amongst populations that are middle-aged and older. 

At age 60, 70% of women and 40% of men are affected by some form of venous disorder.

What causes spider veins?

Spider veins are caused by dilated veins and vein valves that do not function properly. Blood is unable to flow effectively through veins. Blood may begin to flow in the wrong direction causing the vein to bulge- this creates unsightly veins to appear on the surface of the skin.

While anyone could develop spider veins, there are common risk factors that increase our chance of developing spider veins. 

Patients with the following risk factors have an increased risk of spider veins or other venous diseases:

• Excessive weight
• Pregnancy
• Occupations that require prolonged sitting or standing
• Activities that increase venous pressure like jogging, running, bodybuilding, etc.

How do I know if I am developing spider veins?

The most common sign of spider veins is the visual apperance of them on the legs. Other symptoms that you may  have a venous disorder include:

• Leg pain
• Fatigue
• Heaviness
• Swelling
• Cramping
• Tingling, itching or burning sensation
• Changes in skin color (darkening)
• Restlessness

Our veins are important: they transport blood back to the heart to get re-oxygenated. It’s important to keep these vital pathways to the heart healthy. Many people experience some form of vein disease by the time they reach 60 years of age, and making sure you know what to look out for is important to catch potential problems early. Dayton, Ohio residents can rest assured knowing Varicose to Perfect is an accredited institution dedicated to high-quality, compassionate care.

Vein disease is very common: 70 percent of women and 40 percent of men are affected by at least one of the several types. These include deep vein thrombosis, varicose veins, and edema, and they can develop in different ways. In some cases, vein disease is genetic — passed down through families — or it develops as a result of excessive weight gain, pregnancy, or activities that put pressure on the veins such as running, jogging, and bodybuilding.

Varicose veins are noticeably large, blue- or purple-colored segments of valves that become damaged. They appear blue or purple because the blood carried in veins is returning back to the heart without oxygen, and blood loses its deep red color after it has delivered oxygen to the body. When these veins are damaged, they don’t allow de-oxygenated blood to pass as easily, leading to pain and cramping where they appear. Varicose veins are often mistaken for spider veins due to their similar look, but spider veins are smaller and closer to the surface of the skin.

Edema is a vein disease caused by fluid buildup and fluid leakage in the blood vessels. You may notice this as swelling in certain areas like ankles or hands. It can result from standing or sitting in the same position for a prolonged period, high salt intake, premenstrual symptoms, or even pregnancy. Pulmonary edema is a serious medical condition characterized by shortness of breath, chest pain, and difficulty breathing and should be treated as an emergency.

A similar condition called deep vein thrombosis can appear without any symptoms. However, a person suffering from deep vein thrombosis will eventually notice swelling in the leg, ankle and foot, pain and the sensation of a cramp or charley horse, a paleness or reddish or bluish tint to the skin and warmth over the affected leg. The condition can also lead to a pulmonary embolism, which means that if additional symptoms appear, it is absolutely essential to seek immediate medical attention.

Discuss your treatment options with Dr. Sukir Sinnathamby to keep your veins and body healthy by scheduling a consultation today.

Varicose and spider veins aren’t just a cosmetic problem, and they can actually lead to serious medical problems if left untreated. While bulging or web-like veins may indeed affect your confidence, it’s important to have them treated to reduce risk of further vein disease. Dr. Sukir Sinnathamby of Varicose to Perfect in Dayton, OH offers conservative treatments to reduce health risks associated with vein disease.

Comparing and Contrasting Spider Veins and Varicose Veins

Contrary to popular belief, spider veins and varicose veins aren’t the same thing. Varicose veins are large, bulging veins, whereas spider veins appear smaller and do not usually bulge out of the skin. Both are the result of blood collecting in the veins when valves inside of the veins weaken and do not move blood as efficiently as they should, but spider veins can also be caused by injuries, hormones, or even prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Risks of Vein Problems

If left untreated, varicose veins can cause symptoms as mild as fatigue to severe complications such as blood clots or bleeding through sores on the legs. Vein disease puts you at risk of pulmonary embolism, as blood clots can travel to the lungs and block blood flow. While spider veins are often a cosmetic concern, even they can cause itching and bleeding in more severe cases.

Varicose and Spider Vein Treatment

There are a variety of treatments available for varicose and spider veins ranging from simple treatments like compression socks to endovenous laser treatment (EVLT). Of course, the most conservative treatment to alleviate symptoms is exercise and a healthy diet, which has been shown to improve circulation and reduce pain and fatigue associated with vein disease. If your veins do indeed require medical treatment, there are many options available.

Vein disease is usually not life-threatening on its own, but the potential for severe health problems as a result of untreated varicose and spider veins is too significant to ignore. Schedule a consultation with the experts at Varicose to Perfect to protect your health and improve your confidence.

Contrary to popular belief, it’s not just women who suffer from varicose veins. Men can develop vein disease, too. While men tend to have more leg hair to hide the veins, they still need to take care of varicose veins before they develop into more serious medical conditions.

Spider veins and varicose veins are similar. Spider veins are smaller and develop closer to the surface of the skin, while varicose veins are larger and deeper and look like they are bulging out of the skin. Although spider veins typically do not pose a health risk, many patients choose to treat them for cosmetic results.

Varicose veins are a much more serious condition. Varicose veins occur when one-way valves in the legs malfunction and keep blood from flowing back to the heart to be re-oxygenated. The veins then swell and produce unattractive and painful bulges. More than a cosmetic concern, varicose veins can cause deep vein blood clots, which could lead to a pulmonary embolism, which is fatal. Taller and heavy-set men are more at risk for clots, though anyone can get them if vein disease has progressed far enough.

At Varicose to Perfect, Dr. Sinnathamby offers three types of vein treatment for men and women. He will evaluate your vein health before developing a treatment plan in an individual consultation.

For some people, compression socks may be enough to keep blood flowing back to the heart, but for patients with more pronounced vein disease, Dr. Sinnathamby might recommend one of three non- or minimally-invasive procedures, depending on your vein health:

•         VeinGogh treatment: This safe and comfortable system is a non-invasive way to treat spider veins anywhere on the body, including delicate areas like the face.
•         Endo-Venous Laser Treatment (EVLT): This procedure is the new minimally-invasive standard treatment for varicose veins and vein reflux disease and can be performed in-office in less than 1 hour with minimal postoperative recovery.
•         Ambulatory Hook Phlebectomy: This minimally-invasive procedure is recommended for patients who suffer from painful varicose veins that protrude from the surface of the lower extremities.

Men do not need to worry as much about spider veins, but varicose veins need to be taken care of. Treatments for varicose veins are the same for men and women. At Varicose to Perfect, our treatments allow for the healing of varicose veins with little down time. Don’t let the aches and pains of varicose veins slow you down. Contact us today to schedule an appointment to alleviate your pain!

As we age, spider veins develop on our bodies, and it’s important to get them treated. Spider veins are damaged veins, meaning blood is not moving efficiently through the body. At Varicose to Perfect, Dr. Sukir Sinnathamby offers Vein Gogh treatment to reduce the appearance of small spider veins.

What is the VeinGogh treatment?

The VeinGogh treatment utilizes heat burst technology to reduce the appearance of small spider veins. VeinGogh uses heat to collapse a damaged vein while leaving the outer layers of the skin unaffected. The precision tools used during treatment greatly reduces the risk of surrounding tissue and unaffected veins developing heat damage.

How long is the VeinGogh procedure?

The length of the treatment usually depends on the number of veins being treated. In most cases, VeinGogh treatment takes just a few minutes.

What is the recovery like?

VeinGogh in a non-invasive treatment that requires little to no downtime after the procedure. In some cases, patients may experience a minimal amount of redness or swelling. However, redness and swelling should go down with a few hours after treatment.

How soon will I see results?

Results are noticeable immediately after your first treatment. Dr. Sinnathamby will work with you to determine how many treatments you will need to reach your desired results.

How many VeinGogh treatments will I need?

Depending on the appearance of your veins you may have to undergo VeinGogh treatment multiple times. In some case, you may just receive one treatment to achieve the results you desire.

Spider veins and varicose veins aren’t just a cosmetic problem. They can actually lead to serious medical problems if left untreated. While web-like or bulging veins may affect your confidence, there are medical reasons to seek treatment to reduce risk of further vein disease. Varicose to Perfect in Dayton, OH offers conservative treatments to reduce vein disease health risks.

The Difference Between Varicose Veins and Spider Veins

Varicose veins and spider veins are both forms of vein disease, but they are not the same. Varicose veins are large, bulging veins, whereas spider veins are smaller and do not usually bulge out of the skin. Both conditions are the result of blood collecting in the veins when the valves inside the veins are weakened. Weakened valves do not move blood as efficiently as they should, and blood collects in these weaker spaces. Spider veins can be caused by injuries, hormones, or even prolonged exposure to sunlight.

Risks of Vein Problems

Varicose veins can cause health problems if left untreated. Severe complications such as blood clots or bleeding through sores on the legs can result from vein disease, and blood clots put you at a higher risk of pulmonary embolism and stroke. While spider veins are often only cosmetic, they can cause bleeding or itching in more severe cases.
