President, Vascular Society (VSGBI)Oxford Postgraduate School of SurgeryWhat are varicose veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that most commonly appear in the legs when the valves within the veins become weakened or damaged, causing blood to flow backwards and collect. They affect up to 1 in 3 adults and can be both a medical and a cosmetic concern.
Common symptoms
- Aching or heavy legs
- Swelling in the lower limbs
- Itching or discomfort
- Visible bulging veins
- Skin changes or discolouration
Why people seek treatment
- Ongoing discomfort or pain
- Reduced confidence due to visible veins
- Swelling or heaviness in the legs
- Skin changes or irritation
- Reducing the risk of future complications
If left untreated
Varicose veins can progress over time and may lead to:
- Chronic venous insufficiency
- Skin damage or ulcers
- Superficial vein thrombosis, and rarely DVT
Early assessment makes treatment simpler and recovery quicker.
Advanced, minimally invasive treatments
We offer a full range of advanced, minimally invasive varicose vein treatments, selected for you after your duplex scan and consultation.
Endovenous Ablation (Radiofrequency)
- Gold-standard treatment
- Closes faulty veins using heat
- Performed under local anaesthetic

Microsclerotherapy for leg thread veins

Frequently asked questions
Is varicose vein treatment painful?
Most procedures are performed under local anaesthetic and are well tolerated with minimal discomfort.
How long is recovery?
Many patients return to most normal activities within 24–48 hours, depending on the treatment performed. Surgical procedures may require longer recovery.
Will the veins come back?
Treated veins do not return, but new veins can develop over time, which is why follow-up care is important.
Do I need treatment or can I leave it?
If you have troublesome symptoms such as pain, swelling, heaviness, itching, skin changes, superficial vein thrombosis, bleeding, or a venous leg ulcer, NICE recommends referral to a vascular service for assessment. Treatment depends on the assessment and duplex ultrasound findings.
Is treatment safe?
Modern minimally invasive procedures are generally safe and clinically effective when clinically appropriate, but all procedures have risks. Your clinician will explain the benefits, risks and alternatives before treatment.
