In this set of photos, we see the before and after pictures of an active sportsman with large symptomatic varicose veins who was treated at the Spire Hospital in Liverpool. He complained of aching and swelling of the veins after exercise.
We combined Endothermal ablation or RFA to treat the Greater saphenous Vein (GSV) with traditional stab avulsions to treat the large varicosities running across the thigh.
