05 August Varicose Veins, Treatments, and Solutions at River Aesthetics
Do you ever notice unsightly, bulging veins on your legs? You’re not alone. These are varicose veins, a common yet sometimes concerning condition affecting millions worldwide. But fear not! Here at River Aesthetics, we’re excited to offer treatments to help you say goodbye to varicose veins and reclaim your confidence.
What are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that appear just below the skin’s surface, typically on the legs. They can cause discomfort, swelling, and even pain, impacting your daily life.
What Causes Them?
Several factors can contribute to varicose veins, including:
- Heredity – If your family has a history of varicose veins, you’re more likely to develop them.
- Pregnancy – Hormonal changes during pregnancy can weaken vein walls, leading to varicose veins.
- Age – As we age, vein valves become less effective, which can contribute to varicose veins.
- Being Overweight – Excess weight puts additional strain on your veins.
- Standing or Sitting for Long Periods – This can restrict blood flow and increase the risk of varicose veins.
Beyond Aesthetics – The Impact of Varicose Veins
While varicose veins can be unsightly, they can also cause discomfort, including:
- Aching or heavy legs
- Throbbing or burning sensations
- Itching or tingling
- Fatigue
- Swollen ankles
In severe cases, varicose veins can lead to complications like skin ulcers or blood clots.
