How can compression garments help my spider & varicose veins?
Compression garments are a medically effective compression therapy for preventing and treating mild to severe varicose veins/varicosities (bulging, sometimes jagged, superficial veins that usually have a bluish or dark purple color and are commonly found in the legs) and spider veins (smaller, shorter, sometimes tree or spider webbed veins that are often red or blue in color, can be found on the legs and face, and are closer to the surface of the skin than varicose veins). By compressing the blood vessels, compression stockings help treat varicose and spider veins and avoid their reoccurrence. It should be noted that the maternity compression stockings are effective for varicose and spider veins that may form during pregnancy.
How can compression garments benefit me following sclerotherapy treatment?
For similar reasons as those stated for varicose and spider veins, compression stockings are used as a compression therapy following sclerotherapy to prevent the reappearance of spider and varicose veins and to reduce post-sclerotherapy treatment problems associated with brown discoloration deposits. By compressing the blood vessels, compression stockings help patients enjoy better cosmetic results with fewer problems.
