Aesthetic Phlebology: Solutions for venous diseases

Aesthetic Phlebology combines modern minimally invasive techniques with the need to improve the aesthetic outcome in the treatment of venous diseases.

As Mr. Konstantinos N. Xeromeritis, Vascular Surgeon, PhD of the University of Athens, Director of the 4th Vascular Surgery Clinic-Endovascular Laser of Venous Diseases Metropolitan General, explains, this is a specialized field that combines functional and cosmetic treatments for excellent results.

Many patients want the best possible aesthetic result when therapeutically addressing venous insufficiency, varicose veins and other venous diseases. Women, in particular, seek to improve venous circulation in their legs for aesthetic reasons.

Telangiectasias, spider veins and small diameter varicose veins often alter the appearance of the legs and affect women's self-confidence. The evolution of medical technology allows the creation of a specialized field where an experienced vascular surgeon can offer effective solutions without scars and marks.

A prerequisite is the specialization of the doctor in modern techniques of diagnosis and treatment, such as thermal occlusion of the greater/lesser saphenous vein with Laser and sclerotherapy for telangiectasias, concludes Mr. Xeromeritis.
