The nice thing about the procedures I do to help patients\u2019 legs feel and look better is that there are very few restricted activities after they are performed.<\/em><\/strong> The main restriction that I\u2019m quite the stickler about is TRAVEL. I prefer not to perform such elective procedures within a month of a patient\u2019s upcoming trip, especially flights\u2026ESPECIALLY long flights\/car rides. Such travel may independently increase the risk of blood clots.<\/p>\n

The Fall\/Winter\/Spring are my busiest seasons. It\u2019s cooler outside, shorts season is over, and pants season allows for a better experience wearing compression stockings\u2026from both comfort as well as fashion standpoints.<\/em><\/strong> Compression stockings are worn after treatments to improve comfort, safety, and results.<\/p>\n

However, during the Winter, in particular, patients\u2026 \u201dsnowbirds\u201d and otherwise, ordinarily start to travel more.<\/em> <\/strong>I say \u201cordinarily\u201d because, during this COVID period, many people are opting not to travel.<\/p>\n

That having been said, maybe this is the perfect time for you to finally address your chronic varicose\/ spider veins<\/a> as well as legs that have discomfort (heaviness, fatigue, cramps, restless legs, swelling).<\/em> <\/strong>It all starts with a consultation visit. During your visit, I spend approximately 1 hour getting to know
\nabout your medical history, teaching you about how veins function\/malfunction, and then help sort out
\nyour particular issues and how to address them. It\u2019s important to me to make sure my patients are well informed because the only way for you to make a good medical decision is if it is an informed one.<\/p>\n

In particular, there are very interesting treatment options to discuss.<\/em><\/strong> The state-of-the-art treatment of varicose and spider veins are all NON-SURGICAL. I do them in the office. There is zero down-time. They are minimally-invasive, maximally-comfortable, safe, and effective. Many treatments may be covered by commercial insurance and Medicare. I can determine if that is so during your consultation visit.<\/p>\n

For potentially coverable treatments, the authorization\/approval process can often take months.<\/em> <\/strong>That is another great reason why making your consultation appointment with me sooner rather than later is a great idea!<\/p>\n

I look forward to meeting you and helping your legs feel and look better than they have in years!<\/em><\/p>\n
