Actress and writer Gaynor Faye opens up about the varicose vein treatment that transformed her confidence, stopped the aching and itching that disrupted her sleep, and allowed her to walk 30,000 steps a day in Japan symptom-free!
Gaynor Faye is an actress and writer, known for her roles in Emmerdale, Coronation Street, and The Syndicate. But away from the cameras, she dealt with a growing issue that began to affect her confidence and comfort – varicose veins.
“I used to do ballet as a child and I noticed the protruding vein starting to develop,” Gaynor explains. “It would affect my confidence sometimes when doing walking away shots. I knew it was there, so yeah it did affect me.”
Over time, the symptoms worsened. As a writer, she found it increasingly difficult to sit for long periods at her desk. “My legs would ache and itch, especially at night, and it the constant scratching at night really started affecting my sleep.”
Gaynor decided it was time to do something about it and chose Veincentre for her treatment.
“The clinic felt very homely the staff here are fantastic, and you are just made to feel at ease.
During my consultation with Dr Mark Regi, I realised the treatment was going to be straight forward and that he would be there throughout the journey. The treatment itself was absolutely fine, it didn’t take very long and for the end result it was so worth it!”
For Gaynor, the results have been not just physical but also emotional.
“The best thing about it was only four weeks after treatment my legs no longer ached, and the itchiness was gone that affected my sleep.
I wish I’d had it done 10 years ago and alleviated all this itchiness, achiness and been a bit more confident 10 years earlier.”
Gaynor had treatment just before a trip to Japan and was amazed by the difference it made!
“It was brilliant that I had the treatment before my trip to Japan, because there were lots of stairs up to temples, so the treatment really helped me. I was able to do 30,000 steps a day!”
Now, Gaynor is back doing what she loves without discomfort and with a renewed sense of confidence. If you are struggling with varicose veins that are affecting you, get in touch to find out how we can help!
