What Is Vein Disease?

Vein disease happens when the tiny one-way valves in your leg veins weaken or stop working. Normally, these valves open to send blood up toward your heart and then close to keep it from flowing back down. When they fail, blood pools in your legs, causing:

• Bulging veins (varicose veins)
• Swelling and heaviness
• Achy, tired legs

Why early treatment matters

Catching vein disease early can:

• Prevent skin changes like dark patches or slow-healing sores
• Reduce pain and swelling before it gets worse
• Lower the risk of ulcers or blood clots

Getting care at the first signs keeps you active and comfortable. No more nagging leg pain holding you back.

Our Expert Vein Services

Varicose Vein Treatment

Varicose veins are those twisted, bulging vessels you see just under your skin. Our Garland specialists start with a thorough ultrasound exam, then craft a custom plan that often includes:

• Radiofrequency ablation to seal and shrink faulty veins
• VenaSeal™ adhesive “super glue” for fast, stitch-free closure
• Microfoam injections that collapse veins with a tiny needle, guided by ultrasound
• Microphlebectomy to remove surface veins through small openings

Find out how our tailored varicose vein treatment can give you lasting relief and smoother legs.

Chronic Venous Insufficiency Care

When leg veins struggle to return blood upward, you may develop chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). Our Garland team starts with a detailed ultrasound to see which veins aren’t working right, then builds a plan that often includes:

• Compression therapy. Graduated stockings to ease swelling
• Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy. Targeted injections that close small veins
• ClosureFast™ thermal ablation. Heat-based vein sealing for deeper vessels
• VenaSeal™ adhesive. Vein “super glue” for fast, stitch-free closure
• Lifestyle guidance. Simple exercises and leg elevation tips to boost blood flow

Discover how our tailored CVI care can alleviate leg heaviness, improve skin changes, and help you move with confidence.

Deep Vein Thrombosis Management

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a clot in the deep veins of your legs that can cause pain, swelling, and serious risks if it moves toward your lungs. Our Garland team uses ultrasound to pinpoint the clot, then builds a plan that may include:

• Anticoagulation therapy to stop clots from growing
• Thrombectomy for removing larger clots
• IVC filter placement when blood thinners aren’t enough
• Compression stockings to support healthy circulation

Discover how our prompt, personalized DVT care helps protect you from complications and helps you get back on your feet.

Peripheral Arterial Disease Evaluation

Peripheral Arterial Disease (PAD) limits blood flow to your legs. Our Garland specialists begin with painless tests, then tailor a treatment plan:

Diagnostic tests:

• Ankle-Brachial Index (ABI) compares ankle and arm blood pressures
• Doppler ultrasound images the artery flow with sound waves
• Angiography uses dye and X-rays to spot blockages

Treatment options:

• Make lifestyle changes by quitting smoking, walking daily, and eating more whole grains and vegetables.
• Use medications such as statins to lower cholesterol, aspirin or blood thinners, and medications to control blood pressure and diabetes.
• Consider angioplasty and stenting, where a balloon opens the artery, and a mesh stent keeps it wide.
• Explore surgical bypass, which reroutes blood flow around severe blockages.

Discover how our thorough evaluation and targeted therapies can improve circulation, reduce leg pain, and boost your walking endurance.

May–Thurner Syndrome Solutions

When a pelvic artery presses against your iliac vein, it can lead to pain, swelling, and the formation of clots.

Our Garland team offers:

• Blood thinners prevent or treat clots.
• Angioplasty with stenting opens compressed veins.
• Thrombolysis or thrombectomy dissolves or removes large clots.
• Compression stockings reduce swelling after procedures.
• Surgical bypass addresses rare, complex cases.

Discover how our tailored May–Thurner syndrome care can relieve pain and protect your legs from serious complications.

Genicular Artery Embolization for Knee Pain

Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE) offers a cutting-edge, minimally invasive option for easing chronic knee pain so you can get back to your daily activities:

• Blocks pain-generating vessels around the knee joint.
• Uses a minimally invasive, outpatient procedure. No overnight stay.
• Targets osteoarthritis-related knee pain without open surgery.
• Offers noticeable pain relief within days for most patients.
• Enables a quick return to walking and light activities.

FAQs

How do I know if I need a vein doctor in Garland, TX?

If you have aching, heavy legs, visible bulging veins, or swelling that won’t go away, it’s time to see a specialist. Early evaluation can stop problems before they worsen.

What treatments are available for varicose veins?

We offer minimally invasive options like radiofrequency ablation, VenaSeal™ “super glue,” ultrasound-guided microfoam injections, and microphlebectomy. Most procedures take under an hour with little downtime.

Is vein treatment covered by insurance?

Most medical plans cover vein procedures deemed medically necessary, especially for pain, swelling, or skin changes. Our care team handles pre-authorizations to keep things simple for you.

How long is the recovery after vein closure?

You can usually walk out and resume light activities the same day. Wearing compression stockings for a short period helps healing, and most people return to normal routines within one to two weeks.

Can vein disease come back after treatment?

New veins can develop over time, but modern techniques greatly reduce recurrence. Regular follow-up visits help catch and treat any new issues early.

How should I prepare for my first appointment?

Wear loose, comfortable clothing and bring a list of all medications. Plan to discuss your symptoms and medical history. If you have previous imaging or records, bring those along too.
