Varicose vein and thread vein treatment - Pat's story

Premier Veins patient Pat from Oldbury tells us about her thread veins experience; this includes Microsclerotherapy treatment.

What problems were you experiencing with your legs before you sought treatment?

My legs looked horrendous with red and purple thread veins on either side of both of my knees. I’d had enough of how they looked, and was fed up with not being able to wear shorts or a swimming costume when on holiday.

What made you choose Premier Veins for thread vein treatment?

I found the Premier Veins team on the internet. One of their clinics was conveniently located and they offered a free, no-obligation mini-consultation.

What thread vein procedure(s) did you have?

Following an initial consultation with Mr Martin Claridge, where we discussed my thread veins, lifestyle and expectations, I decided to proceed with Microsclerotherapy in order to achieve the best results possible.

Did you have any concerns or questions about your thread vein treatment? How did we handle them?

At the initial consultation, Martin took the time to clearly explain the treatment process, and I was also given a leaflet for further information. I felt confident in the team with the explanations they gave me and the level of detail they used. All my concerns were answered, and I was provided with the direct contact details of the team if I needed to contact them following treatment.

What was your thread vein treatment experience, including the level of care and discomfort and the time it took (both to treat and recover from)?

The treatment was carried out by Martin and Gareth in a nice, clean room. The clinic was easy to find with free parking. The treatment itself was painless, and I was surprised by just how gentle the team were! The stockings were difficult to get on and off initially, but I soon got into the swing of it.

How quickly did you see the results?

I started to see results in as little as one month, with further improvement over the next few months. At one-year, I am really pleased with how my legs look, and I feel that this has given me a lot more confidence!

How has thread vein treatment impacted your life?

Thread vein treatment has vastly improved my life – I am now happy to show my legs in both a swimming costume and shorts, which is what I was hoping for.

What would you say to someone who was considering having thread vein treatment?

Consider having it done! You can come and see the team for a free no obligation mini-consultation to get the ball rolling. A lot of people asked me why I was having this done at my age, but I am so pleased I did. It has well and truly given me back my confidence.

Is there anything else that you would like us to mention in this case study?

Make sure to wear your compression stockings as instructed, and be patient!

Thank you Pat for your informative and kind words. We are delighted that you enjoyed your treatment with us, and that your legs are back to looking and feeling their best!
