Venous Disorders commonly result in significant pain and disability. In addition, many patients are distressed by the appearance of their legs. Fortunately, safe, minimally invasive office-based treatments are effective for relieving the symptoms of venous disease and improving the appearance of the legs.

Symptoms and Signs of Venous Disorders:

• Lower extremity heaviness, aching, and fatigue
• Itching (Pruritus) and tenderness over the legs
• Nighttime cramping and restless legs
• Spider Veins (Telangiectasia) and reticular veins
• Varicose Veins
• Swelling (edema and lymphedema)

• Scarring and induration of the skin (lipodermatosclerosis)
