What are Varicose Veins?

Visible veins on the legs are a common concern for many people and can affect confidence as well as comfort. Varicose veins often appear as enlarged, twisted veins beneath the skin, while others may notice fine red or purple veins, uneven skin tone, or changes in the appearance of their legs over time.

Although some vein concerns are purely cosmetic, others may be associated with symptoms such as aching, heaviness, swelling, or tired legs especially after standing or sitting for long periods. In some cases, the underlying vein problem may not be obvious on the surface, which is why expert assessment is important.

Refined, Minimally Invasive Vein Treatments

This clinic now offers advanced cosmetic and medical vein treatments in collaboration with Revela Clinic, a specialist venous service led by an experienced Consultant Vascular Surgeon.

All treatments are performed by Mr Ahmed Shalan, Consultant Vascular & Endovascular Surgeon, who has extensive experience treating both cosmetic and symptomatic vein concerns. His approach combines medical expertise with an understanding of aesthetic outcomes, aiming to improve both the look and feel of your legs.

Available treatments include:

  • Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) – a gold-standard treatment that gently seals faulty veins using heat, improving circulation and leg appearance
  • Foam Sclerotherapy – targeted injection treatment for selected varicose veins and residual veins
  • Phlebectomy – removal of visible veins through tiny, discreet incisions
  • Microsclerotherapy – a highly precise treatment for thread and spider veins

All procedures are carried out under local anaesthetic, with minimal discomfort and little downtime. Patients are usually able to walk immediately after treatment and return to daily activities quickly.

Personalised Care for Natural-Looking Results

Every patient begins with a detailed consultation and ultrasound assessment to identify the veins contributing to the visible changes. Treating any underlying feeder veins is essential to achieving smooth, long-lasting cosmetic results and reducing the risk of recurrence.

Treatment plans are carefully tailored to individual goals - whether you are seeking cosmetic improvement, relief from leg discomfort, or both.

Specialist Vein Care with Revela Clinic

This service is delivered in partnership with Revela Clinic, a dedicated vein clinic focused on modern, minimally invasive treatments and patient-centred care. Through this collaboration, patients benefit from specialist expertise while receiving treatment in a familiar, high-quality clinic environment.
