Why should you take your varicose veins seriously?
Varicose veins are sometimes misunderstood as merely a cosmetic issue, but this is not entirely accurate. Varicose veins are veins that have swollen, twisted, and become lumpy. They can affect any vein, but they are most commonly found in the legs.
It's important to understand that varicose veins are a visible symptom of vein disease. They could be a sign of more serious problems and should not be overlooked.

How does it work?
At UK Vein Clinic, we don't rush any of our patients into procedures that aren't right for them.
We stick by our signature, step-by-step process to ensure that you are happy with your experience with us, as well as your results.
We conduct a second full duplex scan 8-12 weeks after treatment, to ensure the veins we’ve treated are closed.

Step 1
Frequently Asked Questions
How long will the results last?
Once a varicose vein is fully closed, it remains closed, but veins are living parts of our body and they can re-grow. It is difficult to predict if this will happen and our aftercare team are here for you to discuss at any point along your journey.
Is there any downtime?
Minimally invasive treatments performed under local anaesthetic not only provide better results but also minimise downtime. Following a short 15-minute period of recovery, our patients can return home and resume normal activity.
How long is the treatment?
In most cases, treatment should take under an hour and, as it is a minimally-invasive procedure, patients can walk in-and-out of the clinic on the same day.
Is treatment painful?
Most patients agree that any discomfort caused by the operation is tolerable. Our procedures are defined as relatively painless.
I have private medical insurance; will my treatment be covered?
Generally, private medical insurers will cover varicose vein procedures if patients are experiencing symptoms such as pain & throbbing or skin discolouration. If the reason for treatment is purely cosmetic, then insurers are unlikely to cover treatment costs.

*There is a universal understanding supported by empirical evidence that in a small percentage of cases the procedure will not successfully close the veins identified. Therefore, at UK Vein Clinic we include a guarantee that means if, for whatever reason, the veins we treat with RFA are not successfully closed we will re-treat those veins free of charge for up to a year following your initial treatment. FAQ: How will I know if the treatment hasn’t been successful and therefore any re-treatment would be covered by the guarantee? At the first stage of our clinical pathway our vascular scientists complete a detailed scan of your veins to identify which ones need treating. At your follow up appointment after treatment we will re-scan your legs again to check if the treatment has been successful. If at this stage we identify that the veins have we treated are not successfully closed we will re-treat those veins free of charge.

Swelling, bleeding, skin injury, ulceration, and blood clots are all possible complications. In the worst-case situation, this can result in a pulmonary embolism, which is potentially fatal.
These threats can be mitigated with early detection and timely action.

Initial Consultation & Scan
Our ultrasound scanning team will help you understand whether varicose vein treatment is the right first step for you at this time. Our expert vascular scientists assess the cause of your varicose veins, get a full and accurate 'map' of them, detect any clotting or other abnormalities in your deep veins and determine what the best course of action is.
Step 2
Your Minimally Invasive Procedure
We offer two gold standard varicose vein treatments: Radiofrequency Ablation and Foam Sclerotherapy. Our expert vascular consultants will ensure that you fully understand what is involved with each, and will propose which better suits your profile. Both treatments are minimally-invasive and transparently priced with no hidden fees.
Step 3
After Your Treatment
Patients are typically able to carry on as before within a matter of days or even hours. Our aftercare team are always available to answer any questions you may have and to provide help & guidance if any issues emerge.
