She complained of leg pain, leg cramps at night, restless legs, a sensation of heavy legs, fatigue and more severe symptoms in the evening. Her condition continued to get progressively worse despite her use of support stockings and elevating her legs for over three months. Maria&#8217;s vein problem limited her daily activities and ability to work. She was also embarrassed to show her legs in public and wouldn’t wear shorts or dresses. Maria underwent a complete venous ultrasound examination which revealed extensive disease of the great saphenous, small saphenous and perforator systems. She was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency and varicose veins of her lower extremities with inflammation and stasis dermatitis. She underwent laser ablation and microphlebectomy procedures in our state-of-the-art vein treatment center to correct all areas of venous insufficiency and for varicose vein removal. Maria had complete resolution of her symptoms and an excellent cosmetic result.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" align="justify">Maria&#8217;s underlying condition was caused by damaged one-way valves in her deep veins called <a title="chronic venous insufficiency treatment" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/chronic-venous-insufficiency/">chronic venous insufficiency or CVI</a>. Our <a title="venous ultrasound evaluation" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-spider-varicose-ulcers-insufficiency-office-vascular-surgery-punta-gorda-florida/venous-disease-diagnosis/">venous ultrasound evaluation</a> using customized equipment, allowed us to accurately define all venous areas of pathology in need of correction. During Maria&#8217;s <a title="varicose vein surgery at JVAI" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/varicose-veins/">varicose vein surgery</a> in our office, Maria remained awake and comfortable with the use of local anesthesia. Following a short recovery,  Maria was very pleased with her results. Her right leg varicose veins, venous disease and associated symptoms were successfully eliminated.</p><h5 align="justify">Maria M, the patient, had this to say&#8230;</h5><blockquote><p style="text-align: justify;"><em><em>Many women suffer from varicose veins. I was one of them, but with the assistance of Dr. Joyce’s surgical procedures my veins started to go away.  I’m more than 100% satisfied with the results.  Before the procedures I was in pain and embarrassed to show my legs in public.  I wouldn’t even wear shorts or dresses.  Now I can do that.  Thanks to Dr. Joyce and his wonderful staff.  They are professional and friendly.  I definitely recommend Dr. Joyce.  He is one of the best doctors that has treated me.  I don’t have words to express how thankful I am to Dr. Joyce.”</em>  –Maria M.</em></p></blockquote><h4><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-9991" style="border: 0pt none; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;" title="Information-Icon" src="http://www.jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Information-Icon.png?9d7bd4" alt="Information Icon Life Changing Varicose Vein Treatment for 36 Year Old Woman" width="35" height="35" />Douglas H.

It is not uncommon for podiatrists, dermatologists, internists and other practitioners to take a weekend training on cosmetic treatment for spider and varicose veins and add vein treatment to their list of services. Problems caused by high pressure causing a backward flow of blood toward the legs are not eliminated by cosmetic vein treatment procedures.</p><h4 style="text-align: justify;" align="center"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-9991" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Information-Icon" src="http://www.jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Information-Icon.png?9d7bd4" alt="Information Icon Life Changing Varicose Vein Treatment for 36 Year Old Woman" width="35" height="35" />Had Maria gone to a cosmetic vein treatment center, she would still be suffering from underlying venous disease.</h4><p style="text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;" align="center">Maria&#8217;s clinical symptoms clearly indicated the need for evaluation and treatment by a vein specialist in a facility equipped to diagnose and treat venous disease. Unfortunately, patients like Maria can be inappropriately treated for a varicose vein problem in cosmetic vein clinics. Besides being ineligible for insurance reimbursement for a cosmetic procedure, Maria would still be suffering from leg pain, swelling, discoloration, restless legs and would be likely to develop more varicose veins in other parts of her legs. She would also be at great risk to develop more progressive symptoms such as a <a title="venous stasis leg ulcer" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/venous-leg-ulcers/">venous stasis leg ulcer,</a> brownish leathery-looking skin on her legs and even cellulitis or infection of the tissue surrounding a leg ulcer.</p><h4 style="text-align: justify;" align="center"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-9991" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Information-Icon" src="http://www.jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Information-Icon.png?9d7bd4" alt="Information Icon Life Changing Varicose Vein Treatment for 36 Year Old Woman" width="35" height="35" />Cosmetic spider vein treatment at JVAI vein treatment center is designed to identify and treat underlying venous disease, when it is present&#8230;</h4><p style="text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;" align="center">At JVAI, many patients come to us for cosmetic treatment of their spider veins and varicose veins.

Joyce, D.O and his state-of-the-art vein treatment in Punta Gorda, Florida. That was when Gwen B got her life back with a permanent cure through an accurate diagnosis and minimally invasive, comfortable needle-stick surgeries performed in the office with local anesthesia.</p><h4 align="justify">Besides a venous stasis leg ulcer and varicose veins, Gwen&#8217;s problem was due to chronic venous insufficiency from damaged one-way valves in her deep vein systems&#8230;</h4><p style="text-align: justify;" align="justify">Gwen came to JVAI with a recurrent open wound inside her left ankle that opened spontaneously without any trauma. She complained of painful, heavy, cramping legs with swelling. Prominent bulging varicose veins, inflammation, swelling and stasis dermatitis were present in both legs. During an evaluation and diagnostic ultrasound, we determined that Gwen&#8217;s problems were due to pathology in her Great Saphenous and Perforator vein systems. this was detected through a highly specific ultrasound examination that confirmed the exact pathology causing her leg ulcer, varicose veins and other related symptoms. Since the leg ulcer was an immediate concern, our plan involved vein treatment to address that problem first. Gwen underwent quick, relatively painless surgical procedures via a revolutionary single needle stick technique in our state-of-the-art office under local anesthesia. Following a short recovery, she began to live the life she had not known for many years. Within a few months, her venous leg ulcer healed completely. Additional procedures for varicose vein removal were part of her treatment plan.</p><h4 align="justify">Gwen B, our patient, had this to say&#8230;</h4><blockquote><p style="text-align: justify;"><em>Dr. Joyce’s office worked with me very nicely to include explaining procedures before I had them, made sure I had all my prescriptions before and after my procedures and gave me bandages. They were very patient with me and made me feel comfortable. I do not like needles but the procedure was well worth the outcome. I have a job that entitles me to stand all day and my leg is pain free. The outcome was very successful.”  &#8211;Gwen B.</em></p></blockquote><h4><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-9991" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Information-Icon" src="http://www.jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Information-Icon.png?9d7bd4" alt="Information Icon Severe Venous Disease with Leg Ulcer Cured at JVAI   A Featured Case" width="35" height="35" />Douglas H.

They failed to accurately diagnose and treat her underlying venous disease.</h4><p style="text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;" align="center">Vein treatment centers for exclusively providing aesthetic treatments, are not capable of diagnosing and treating underlying venous disease. Even among practices staffed by board certified vein specialists (phlebologists), there can be a vast difference in the techniques used for the treatment of vein diseases. Some will rely on invasive surgery practices requiring general anesthesia in a surgical center – procedures that take much more time at great expense and may be associated with complications and a long painful recovery. Only a handful of vein specialists will cure a patient&#8217;s venous problem with a simple needle stick performed in the office with local anesthesia. This affordable vein treatment has a 96% success rate, virtually no complications and offers a very short recovery time.</p><h4 style="text-align: justify;" align="center"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-9991" style="border: 0pt none;" title="Information-Icon" src="http://www.jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/Information-Icon.png?9d7bd4" alt="Information Icon Severe Venous Disease with Leg Ulcer Cured at JVAI   A Featured Case" width="35" height="35" />State-of-the-art vein treatment at JVAI is designed to identify and treat underlying venous disease, when it is present&#8230;</h4><p style="text-align: justify; padding-left: 30px;" align="center"><a title="Douglas Joyce, DO, phlebologist and triple board certified cardio vascular surgeon" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-vascular-surgery-facial-skin-care-beauty-cosmetic-center-punta-gorda-florida/dr-douglas-joyce-venous-disease-physician-surgeon-specialist/">Douglas H.

We knew that we had the technology and techniques to permanently eliminate his varicose veins and end the complaints that kept him from doing what he most loved. We were confident that our simple, minimally invasive needle stick comfortable procedures would once again, allow him to stand on his feet and spend hours a day fishing. He was so delighted with his treatment results that he brought us a picture with his prized catch after his vein surgery.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" align="justify">Roger H presented to us with all the usual complaints associated with venous disease &#8211; aching leg pain and cramps, leg pain at night, restless legs, intolerance to standing and walking, leg swelling, and prominent bulging varicose veins. During our evaluation, we determined that Roger&#8217;s problem excluded PAD or Peripheral Arterial Disease and blood disorders, making it likely that his problem was related to vein pathology rather than an arterial condition. Besides prominent varicose veins in his left lower leg and moderate edema or swelling, we noted discoloration, another sign that venous stasis changes were present. All of these changes are related to venous hypertension (high blood pressure) and venous stasis where fluid and blood accumulate and interfere with the normal exchange of nutrients and wastes in the smallest vessels called capillaries.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" align="justify">It appeared from Roger&#8217;s history and physical that his varicose veins were due to damaged one-way valves in his deep veins called <a style="text-align: justify;">chronic venous insufficiency or CVI</a>.

During this painless <a title="vein treatment ultrasound diagnosis" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-spider-varicose-ulcers-insufficiency-office-vascular-surgery-punta-gorda-florida/venous-disease-diagnosis/">diagnostic vein ultrasound procedure</a>, we determined that Roger&#8217;s problem was due to incompetence of his left venous perforator vein and great/small saphenous vein systems. Following his chronic venous insufficiency and <a title="varicose vein surgery at JVAI" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/varicose-veins/">varicose vein treatment</a> in our comfortable state-of-the-art office vein center, Roger felt better than he had in years.

Perhaps you also have itching, heavy legs, cramps in your legs or lower leg pain at night. You may have noticed some unsightly spider veins and varicose veins but your main concern is those bothersome restless legs that rob you of energy and vitality to get through your busy day.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">When you visit your doctor and tell him your chief complaint, he immediately takes out the prescription pad to give you medication for restless leg syndrome treatment. You also mention your cramps in legs and leg pain at night but he isn&#8217;t too concerned, telling you that pain in legs and superficial spider veins and varicose veins are not a big deal. They are more or less expected with increasing age, he assures you before sending you on your way. But perhaps your restless legs, itchy, painful, heavy legs with spider and varicose veins are something more.</p><h2>Restless leg syndrome treatment that masks underlying venous disease &#8230;</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">What many physicians do not know is that restless legs, strange sensations or itchy skin on legs can be a sign of underlying diseases of the veins. Even when big bulging twisted varicose veins and clusters of spider veins or leathery discolored skin are not present, restless legs can be a sign of incompetent valves in the veins. When valves that keep blood moving forward towards the heart become diseased, blood leaks backward into the legs. Over time, this produces high blood pressure in the veins and results in a condition called venous stasis. As blood accumulates, superficial veins stretch and dilate and the exchange of nutrients and waste products in tiny vessels called capillaries is compromised. Symptoms of this disease process are varied but many people in the early stages report restless legs, cramps in legs and leg pain at night.</p><h2>Symptomatic restless leg syndrome treatment can trade one problem for another&#8230;</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">Medications that reduce restless legs may be covering up a venous problem that left untreated, is likely to progress over time. As the disease progresses, symptoms increase in severity and become disabling. Most patients complain of difficulty standing for long periods and walking. Sleep becomes more disturbed. Spider veins and varicose veins become prominent and there is often leg swelling, thickened discolored skin and in severe cases, leg ulcers with serious infection called cellulitis.</p><h2>Vein screening exams before restless leg syndrome treatment &#8230;</h2><p style="text-align: justify;">A simple screening exam at a vein treatment center consisting of a history, physical evaluation and specialized <a title="Diagnosis of venous disease with ultrasound scan" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-spider-varicose-ulcers-insufficiency-office-vascular-surgery-punta-gorda-florida/venous-disease-diagnosis/">ultrasound scan of your leg veins</a> can determine whether restless legs and other symptoms are due to underlying venous disease. Patients diagnosed with venous disease are generally eligible to receive insurance reimbursement for diagnostic and treatment expenses. Simple needle stick procedures performed quickly and painlessly in an out-patient procedure can permanently eliminate the cause and end restless legs and other related complaints. Preventing progression of venous disease through early intervention also means that <a title="spider veins and venous disease treatment at JVAI" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/spider-veins/">spider veins</a> and <a title="varicose veins and venous disease treatment at JVAI" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/varicose-veins/">varicose veins</a> are not likely to develop along with other more serious related symptoms.

Barbara reported the usual complaints associated with venous disease: difficulty standing and walking, sleep disturbances, leg pain and an overall poor quality of life. She told us that the wound was due to an injury that had been present for many months. During her examination, we noted many venous stasis changes that are typical signs of underlying venous disease. Besides spider veins, varicose veins and swelling in her left and right lower legs, Barbara also had early hemosiderosis, a brownish discoloration that occurs around the ankle and lower tibial area from blood cell breakdown when venous hypertension is present. Barbara had no symptoms of classic claudication associated with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD).</p><p style="text-align: justify;" align="justify">It appeared from Barbara&#8217;s history and physical that her problems were secondary to an underlying condition caused by damaged one-way valves in her deep veins called <a title="chronic venous insufficiency treatment" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/chronic-venous-insufficiency/">chronic venous insufficiency or CVI</a>. We proceeded to perform an ultrasound evaluation using our customized equipment that is highly accurate in detecting the exact areas of pathology. During this painless <a title="vein treatment ultrasound diagnosis" href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-spider-varicose-ulcers-insufficiency-office-vascular-surgery-punta-gorda-florida/venous-disease-diagnosis/">diagnostic vein ultrasound procedure</a>, we determined that Barbara&#8217;s problem was due to competence of her subfascial venous perforators and great/small saphenous vein systems. Barbara underwent surgical vein treatment procedures in our state-of-the-art operating room within our office. During her procedures, she remained awake and comfortable. Following a short recovery, Barbara experienced complete healing of her wound and the elimination of her spider veins, varicose veins and all other symptoms.</p><h5 align="justify">Barbara S, our patient, had this to say&#8230;</h5><blockquote><p style="text-align: justify;"><em>The reason for my visit initially was for swelling and a non-healing wound of my right leg.

Patients often undergo treatments in these centers three times per week for many months. With open wounds that are prone to infection, they experience a tremendous alteration in their life style. Wound care can deplete a patient&#8217;s finances, compromise their ability to work and enjoy activities with family and friends.

Problems caused by high pressure causing a backward flow of blood toward the legs are not eliminated by cosmetic vein treatment procedures. Had Barbara been treated for a cosmetic varicose vein problem only, she would have paid the entire amount out of her pocket and would be very unhappy when in a short amount of time, varicose veins and spider veins appeared in other parts of her legs. she would still be suffering from leg cramps, pain and swelling.

Besides her varicose veins with spontaneous bleeding from a vein in her right leg, Nancy&#8217;s symptoms included spider veins, leg swelling, lower extremity skin thickening, and complaints of leg cramping, pain and problems with prolonged standing and walking as well as sleeping. An ultrasound confirmed incompetence in her venous perforator and saphenous vein systems. Her varicose vein treatment corrected these problems during office procedures in which she was awake and comfortable. Nancy readily recovered with a complete elimination of her spider veins, varicose veins, venous disease and associated symptoms.</p><h3>How Venous Disease Begins</h3><p style="text-align: justify;" align="center">Two systems of veins in the legs, the surface or superficial veins and the deep veins, allow for the proper movement of blood back to the heart. The superficial veins lie just under the skin. The deep veins lie within the large muscles of the leg. The two vein systems are connected by short veins called perforator veins. All of the veins have valves to maintain one way flow. When you walk or exercise, your calf muscles squeeze large deep veins and pump blood out of your legs towards your heart.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" align="center">With proper function of the valves, the venous system of your legs is designed to overcome the effects of gravity and pump blood out of your legs towards your heart where it picks up a fresh supply of oxygen. When valves in the superficial and deep veins become incompetent, gravity reverses the flow of blood back towards the feet. Ultimately, this produces an increased blood pressure in the surface veins of the leg. Incompetent veins in the superficial and deep veins can produce spider veins, varicose veins, leg swelling, leg ulcers and serious infection.</p><h3>Signs of Venous Disease</h3><p style="text-align: justify;" align="center">One of the first signs of venous disease and the need for vein treatment is distention of the delicate superficial skin veins or <a title="spider veins" href="http://jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/spider-veins/">spider veins</a>. With progression of the disease, there is dilation of the larger veins resulting in <a title="varicose veins" href="http://jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/varicose-veins/">varicose veins</a>. Pressure from distended larger veins on nerves results in aching pain and night cramps. Often patients report unusual sensations described as “water flowing down the legs” or “crawling feelings on the skin.” Swelling or edema occurs from a leakage of water into tissues from the dilated veins. Blood may also leak out as the pressure increases. This produces a brownish skin discoloration. The disease compromises the normal exchange of nutrients and wastes at the level of the capillary beds. This causes a thickening of the skin and/or death of tissue resulting in a <a title="venous leg ulcer" href="http://jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/venous-leg-ulcers/">venous leg ulcer</a>. Another serious consequence of this type of venous disease is infection of the skin or cellulitis.</p><p style="text-align: justify;" align="center">Sometimes venous disease begins with a traumatic leg injury or a spider bite that is resistant to healing in patients as young as their teens. Patients may attribute their tired, aching legs, exercise intolerance and other symptoms to an injury or just to getting older. The result is often years of misdiagnosis and mismanagement with one treatment failure after another. Regardless of when or how our patients find their way to JVAI, their experiences are overwhelmingly positive. You can read about them on our website in page after page of <a href="http://www.jvai.com/patient-testimonials/spider-vein-varicose-venous-leg-ulcer-treatment/">vein treatment testimonials</a> that document our results and the impact on patients&#8217; lives.

Maria reported a history of phlebitis and DVT (risk factors for venous disease). Through laser ablation, we provided Maria with a permanent cure that eliminated all of her symptoms, her underlying venous disease problem and gave her back a quality of life she thought was gone forever.</p><h4><a href="http://www.jvai.com/vein-treatment-disorders/varicose-veins/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-9392" title="BA-varicose-cvi-dvt-maria-l" src="http://www.jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/BA-varicose-cvi-dvt-maria-l.png?9d7bd4" alt="BA varicose cvi dvt maria l Varicose Vein Treatment Cured Venous Disease in 55 Year Old with History of DVT" width="600" height="618" /></a>Treatment Summary:</h4><p style="text-align: justify;">This 55 year old white female with a history of phlebitis and DVT, presented with aching, heavy left leg complaints along with swelling, discoloration and prominent painful, bulging, subcutaneous varicose veins. Symptoms of classic claudication (associated with PAD) were absent. Moderate hemosiderosis (brownish discoloration associated with venous hypertension, insufficiency and stasis) was present on her left inner ankle. She reported using compression stockings and elevating her legs when possible. Clinical and ultrasound exam were positive for left lower extremity varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, inflammation, and stasis dermatitis.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">The patient underwent laser ablation procedures at JVAI to correct saphenous vein incompetence and perforator system pathology. Treatment at JVAI resulted in elimination of the varicose veins with other associated symptoms and a complete reversal of her left leg venous insufficiency. &#8211;Douglas H. Joyce, D.O.</p><h4>Maria L., the patient had this to say&#8230;</h4><blockquote><p style="text-align: justify;">It is my PLEASURE  to write how satisfied I was with my results after venous laser surgery on my left leg.  I was ‘SO SKEPTICAL’ regarding having any kind of procedures to correct my  horrible varicose veins after having a blood clot in that leg.  To be truthful, I didn’t think it could be fixed, I thought the damage was too great. I thought I would have to ‘just live with’ the swelling, awful ‘pressure feeling’ and ‘aching’ when standing.  Dr. Joyce truly is skilled at what he does.  I have been showing my friends my before pictures and my after leg now and they are impressed to say the least!  I can’t say enough good comments. Joni is a great asset—she explains everything. The staff is friendly, professional and courteous.. &#8212; Maria L</p></blockquote><h4>More about Varicose Veins and Venous Disease&#8230;</h4><p style="text-align: justify;">Varicose veins can be a sign of serious underlying venous disease that can greatly compromise quality of life.

But most likely they come back in other parts of your legs. You see, cosmetic procedures for vein removal do not take care of the underlying problem. Left untreated, those problems in your venous system will produce leg pain, swelling, skin discoloration, spider veins, varicose veins and even venous leg ulcers &#8211; a severe consequence of untreated venous disease.</p><p style="text-align: justify;"><a title="Douglas Joyce, DO, phlebologist and triple board certified cardio vascular surgeon" href="http://jvai.com/vein-treatment-vascular-surgery-facial-skin-care-beauty-cosmetic-center-punta-gorda-florida/dr-douglas-joyce-venous-disease-physician-surgeon-specialist/"><img class="aligncenter" title="Varicose veins before and after treatment" src="http://jvai.com/dev/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/veins.png?9d7bd4" alt="veins Cosmetic Varicose Vein Removal will not Eliminate Venous Disease" width="467" height="196" />Douglas Joyce, DO, phlebologist and triple board certified cardio vascular surgeon</a> founded and operates JVAI, a <a title="state-of-the-art vein center in Punta Gorda, FLorida" href="http://jvai.com/vein-treatment-vascular-surgery-facial-skin-care-beauty-cosmetic-center-punta-gorda-florida/">state-of-the-art vein center </a>in Punta Gorda, Florida.

Cosmetic varicose vein removal is achieved through Microphlebectomy while Great and Small Saphenous Vein Laser Ablation effectively treats most underlying varicose vein pathology and keeps it from coming back &#8211; something that no cosmetic procedure alone can accomplish.</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Before you settle for a cosmetic varicose vein procedure, explore some of <a title="JVAI's varicose vein treatment featured cases" href="http://jvai.com/blog/category/vein-treatment-featured/">JVAI&#8217;s varicose vein treatment featured cases</a>.
