Varices: The arteries take the blood from the heart to the legs and the veins are long conduits that give back the blood to the heart. For multiple reasons, these conduits can be expanded progressively, causing slower movement of the blood back to the heart. These conditions can possibly produce other health problems.

Symptoms: Pain in legs, fatigue, cramps, inflammation, hard legs, hot legs, appearance of bruises with no apparent cause or just by touching, they can be an indication of veins disease. 

Causes: Inheritance, use of contraceptives or hormonal drugs, working standing or remaining still for hous and/or multiple pregnancies are the main causes. 

Treatments: Each vein and each person are different; therefore the treatments must be according to the location, size, expansion and color of the varices. Before planning a treatment for your veins, it is necessary to establish consult and a specialized scan to see the sanguineous flows.

Ilesere offers a Laser Treatment - an alternative to the conventional surgery, for the great veins and of medium caliber. A laser fibre (like spaghetti) is introduced in the affected vein to collapse it. The procedure uses local aesthesia and you leave walking. Laser energy produces a strong contraction of elastic fibres and induces a fibrosis to the wall of the vein, to eliminate the sanguineous ebb tide and its consequences. This generates a diminution in the pressure of the collateral branches and reverts the phenomenon of expansion of the varices, reducing the size progressively until making them imperceptible.
