We specialize in Varicose Veins.
Varicose veins are a disease in which the veins in the legs become bumpy and raised.
Varicose veins are not likely to worsen rapidly or become life-threatening,
However, various symptoms such as leg swelling, heaviness, fatigue, pain, itching, and skin discoloration can affect daily life.
At our hospital, after a thorough examination using an ultrasound diagnostic device, we will propose several methods, including laser treatment, depending on the individual’s medical condition.
If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact us.
