Varicose Veins and Venous Ulcers Treatment at Elegance Clinic
Varicose veins are swollen, twisted veins caused by faulty valves, usually in the legs. Over time, poor blood flow can lead to venous ulcers, non-healing wounds that form on the lower leg or ankle. At Elegance Clinic, we provide advanced surgical and minimally invasive treatments, including varicose vein stripping, perforator ligation, and saphenofemoral junction ligation to improve circulation, promote healing, and prevent complications.
When is it Recommended?
Treatment is recommended if you experience:
- Bulging, painful, or itchy varicose veins
- Persistent swelling or heaviness in the legs
- Venous ulcer or other non-healing ulcers around the ankle
- Skin discoloration or thickening due to venous insufficiency
- Recurrent infections or difficulty walking due to swelling
Early intervention in varicose veins prevents further damage and improves quality of life.
Types of Conditions Treated at Elegance Clinic
We provide comprehensive care for:
- Non-healing ulcer and venous ulcer management
- Perforator ligation to disconnect faulty perforator veins
- Varicose vein stripping to remove problematic veins
- Saphenofemoral junction ligation and saphapopliteal junction ligation to stop reflux at the vein junctions
- 1470 diode laser for varicose vein closure (minimally invasive)
- Limb swelling correction to restore comfort and function
- Spider vein correction for cosmetic and functional improvement
- Skin grafting in ulcers for large or chronic wounds
What Happens Before This Treatment?
Before surgery, our specialists perform:
- A detailed clinical exam of your legs
- Doppler ultrasound or venous mapping to locate faulty veins
- Evaluation of any venous ulcers or skin changes
- Medical history review to plan safe anesthesia and care
- You will receive clear instructions on fasting, medications, and post‑operative expectations
How Does This Treatment Work?
Depending on your condition, our surgeons may:
- Perform varicose vein stripping through small incisions to remove diseased veins
- Use perforator ligation to tie off abnormal connecting veins
- Correct reflux with saphenofemoral junction ligation or saphapopliteal junction ligation
- Employ laser technology, such as 1470 diode laser, for sealing varicose veins
- Apply skin grafting in ulcers for chronic wounds to promote rapid healing
All procedures aim to restore proper blood flow and prevent further tissue damage.
How Long Does This Treatment Take?
- Minor interventions like spider vein correction may take 30–60 minutes.
- Major procedures such as varicose vein stripping or junction ligations may take 1–3 hours.
- Outpatient laser treatments allow same‑day discharge, while more complex cases may require short hospital stays.
Risks and Benefits
Benefits:
- Relief from pain, heaviness, and swelling
- Faster healing of venous ulcers and non-healing ulcers
- Prevention of future complications and infections
- Improved leg appearance and function
Risks:
- Temporary bruising, numbness, or scarring
- Rare risks of bleeding, infection, or recurrence
- Mild swelling that resolves with time
Post‑Treatment Care
- Keep legs elevated when resting
- Wear compression stockings as advised
- Attend regular follow‑up appointments for wound checks and dressing changes
- Avoid strenuous activity for a few weeks
- Maintain a healthy weight and stay active to promote circulation
What Can I Expect for Recovery?
Most patients resume normal activities within a week after minor interventions.
For more extensive procedures such as varicose vein stripping or skin grafting for ulcers, recovery may take several weeks with proper wound care. Visible improvement in symptoms like limb swelling and pain often occurs within days of surgery.
When to Consult a Doctor?
Seek immediate care if you experience:
- Sudden increase in pain or swelling in the legs
- A wound that isn’t healing or shows signs of infection
- Bleeding or pus from the surgical site
- New non-healing ulcer or skin discoloration
Early consultation ensures timely management and prevents serious complications.

Seek treatment if you have leg pain, swelling, visible bulging veins, skin discoloration, or a non-healing ulcer. Early intervention in varicose veins prevents complications.
What treatments are available at Elegance Clinic for these conditions?
We offer advanced options including varicose vein stripping, perforator ligation, saphenofemoral junction ligation, saphapopliteal junction ligation, 1470 diode laser for varicose vein, and skin grafting in ulcer when needed.
How does a varicose vein stripping procedure work?
During varicose vein stripping, diseased veins are removed through small incisions, improving blood flow and relieving symptoms like swelling and pain.
