Varicose veins and couperose

Varicose veins and spider veins can also deteriorate if left untreated and lead to complications. Consulting a physician trained in phlebology is an excellent way to treat them.

A varicose vein is a vein that no longer adequately returns blood to the heart. These superficial veins are often associated with heaviness, fatigue in the legs, skin pigmentation problems, itching, edema and varicose ulcers.

Several factors may cause the appearance of telangiectasias on the face such as heredity, sensitive and fair skin, continuous exposure to pollution, smoking, temperature changes as well as sex, as couperose is more frequent in women.

The treatment of varicose veins and couperose is light, non-invasive or minimally invasive and doesn’t require any convalescence.
