Clinic offers easy
solution to varicose veins
If varicose veins are a problem for you, the
dedicated, professional team at Transform
Clinic in Mandeville Street Riccarton can
provide the perfect solution.
Firstly, they will give you a free
assessment of your veins, and then suggest
the appropriate method of treatment,
depending on the condition of the veins.
There are two methods available –
endo-venous laser treatment, which is
used for both smaller and larger veins,
and ultrasound guided sclerotherapy.
Both are easy and straightforward, and
you can be fully active immediately
afterwards, without needing to take any
time off work, or curtail your normal
activities. The only requirement is for you
to wear special stockings for two weeks
following treatment, and daily walking is
recommended.
Both these treatments give long-term
relief from the pain and discomfort of
varicose veins, and as Transform Clinic’s
Jenny Little points out, they have become
the treatment method of today, with
surgical removal of varicose veins now
considered obsolete.
Jenny advises having treatment as early
as possible when varicose veins start to
appear, as left untreated they may lead to
venous ulcers and venous eczema, although
if these have developed, Transform Clinic
can treat them as well.
Transform Clinic has an affiliation
with health provider Southern Cross and
relationships with several other health
insurance companies, which means you are
usually covered for treatment, providing it
is included in your policy.
Transform Clinic also offers a full range
of appearance medicine options, including
skin rejuvenation and skin-tightening
treatments designed to improve skin quality
and enhance self-esteem. They remove
superficial veins on the legs and face, and
also provide mole mapping, mole removal
and primary skin cancer removal. Their
website, www.transformclinic.co.nz, has
information on all the various treatments
available.
“We are a ‘one-stop shop’ for all cosmetic
medicine treatments,” says Jenny.
Transform Clinic is discreetly located
at 52a Mandeville Street. Opening hours
are Monday to Friday from 8.30am, with
late nights on Tuesday and Thursday,
and Saturday from 9am to 3pm. Phone
