People are often inclined to think that cosmetics are about getting rid of wrinkles, and while that is certainly a huge part of it, it is also about focusing on prevention and bringing about repair to other areas of the body. Cosmetics are getting better every year thanks to the ongoing work of scientists, and these days we are seeing quicker results, with many cosmetic experts investing in specialized equipment and active ingredients to give spectacular results.
Varicose Vein Treatment Las vegas
A popular procedure which has been gaining momentum is varicose vein treatments. The Vein Clinic of Las Vegas along with the skills of Dr M.H. Bashy never just plunge into treatments willy nilly. They look at your overall health, your age and medical history before working out a plan of treatment adapted to your specific needs. Dr. Bashy is also the first physician in the Las Vegas area to introduce foam-sclerotherapy in 2002.
A Mangled Mass of Pooled Blood
Varicose veins, those dreaded purple-black bulges below your skin and mostly occurring at the back of your legs can be a stumbling block in your life. They are enlarged veins and come about because the veins are weak and damaged.
The heart pumps blood filled with oxygen and nutrients to the entire body, and the veins carry the blood from the body to the heart. Your leg muscles push blood back to the heart from your lower body against the flow of gravity. These veins have valves which prevent blood from flowing backwards as it moves up your legs. If the valves are weakened, blood leaks into the veins, and pools there. This is what is known as venous insufficiency. It is this pooled blood that makes your veins bigger and so unattractive.
There Can be Serious Health Implications
Add spider veins in to your varicose veins and you may well feel as though you have been doubly cursed. Varicose veins can spell a lifetime of discomfort, embarrassment and lack of confidence. They can become painful for you to walk, and many times the skin around the bulging vein is red, inflamed and even has sores. These unsightly veins can also have health implications than most of us are not even aware of.
Think of Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a serious condition with the chance of developing blood clots in the deep veins. This is a condition that will require medical care right away. The problem occurs when a blood clot breaks off and travels to the lungs. This is known as pulmonary embolism and it can spell death. Symptoms include chest pain and trouble with breathing, a fast heartbeat, coughing sweating, and even fainting.
What Causes Varicose Veins
Poor circulation contributes significantly to varicose veins. Hormonal imbalances, having a job where you stand most of the day, lack of exercise, pregnancy, your genes and obesity can also play a part in varicose veins developing. Varicose veins don’t only affect older people, anyone can get them, male and female. Probably genetics are the biggest contributing factor to the development of varicose veins.
Mercifully, on a blazing hot day, you no longer have to resort to long pants. You also don’t need to resort to surgery and hand yourself over to a general anesthesia. In fact, varicose vein treatments today allow one to continue with a normal lifestyle without interruption.
Interested in a varicose vein treatment that involves minimal pain and discomfort and which gives excellent results?
►Sclerotherapy – this is an injection of non-saline FDA-approved special solution into the veins. This results in the inner walls sticking together and sealing the leaks in the faulty valves. With this treatment, leg circulation also improves. Dr Bashy has already successfully done over 50,000 of these sclerotherapy sessions for his patients. Two to four visits to the clinic will be required. For those tiny spider veins, IPL treatment is used. This fantastic treatment is not limited to the legs but can be extended to the hands too, successfully removing those unattractive bulging veins.
►VNUS Closure Procedure – also a minimally invasive treatment, utilizing radio-frequency energy to heat and contract the collagen found inside the vein walls. This causes the veins to collapse and seal shut. There is very little bruising and pain. Dr Bashy closes the diseased veins by inserting the Closure catheter into a vein and heating the vein wall with temperature-controlled RF energy.
Once the vein is sealed shut, blood reroutes to healthy veins. This minimally invasive outpatient procedure can be performed using local anesthesia in a physician’s office. Patients appreciate the little downtime so they are able to resume normal activity within a day or two. The ClosureFAST catheter enjoys a 97.4 efficacy rate and its beauty lies in the fact that there is no scarring. Extensive clinical tests on thousands of patients in the USA and Europe show over and over again the effective of this treatment.
