They are available in a variety of lengths (knee, thigh, or panty) as well as a variety of colors. Most insurance companies require a trial of compression stocking therapy before one can be considered for more definitive therapy of vein problems.

Ideal Candidate?

Dr. Magnant strongly encourages his patients to initiate compression therapy as soon as the clinical diagnosis of significant venous insufficiency is either strongly suspected or confirmed. There are a number of exceptions to the conservative trial rule. These exceptions include active ulceration or recurrent bleeding, in which cases treatment should be performed earlier.

If you suffer from any of these symptoms or would like more information, contact Dr. Joseph Magnant today at: 239-694-VEIN or visit him at: www.WeKnowVeins.com to schedule your appointment online.

Injection sclerotherapy is the most time tested, least painful, most efficient and cost effective therapy for spider and reticular veins and small varicose veins.  FDA approved medications are injected through tiny needles into the actual spider veins which causes a gentle injury to the lining of the veins resulting in swelling and occlusion of the veins.  It may take months for the closed off veins to be reabsorbed.

There are many different types of sclerotherapy such as:

• INJECTION SCLEROTHERAPY
• LASER SCLEROTHERAPY
• FOAM SCLEROTHERAPY
