Patient Story: Sue
“It’s changed my life so much – I’d give this treatment 10/10.”
Sue’s story is a powerful reminder that varicose veins don’t just affect how we look – they affect how we feel, every single day. After years of discomfort and self-consciousness, Sue finally found the confidence and relief she’d been searching for.
Before Vein Treatment
Sue had been considering treatment for her varicose veins for a few years. Last year, they began to progress further down her leg, and that’s when she knew it was time to take action.
“I would never wear shorts; I was too self-conscious of the ugly vein,” Sue said. “They were so big you could even see them through leggings!”
The impact wasn’t just cosmetic. Sue also experienced uncomfortable symptoms like achy, heavy, and itchy legs that were constantly on her mind.
How Was Sue’s VeinCentre Journey?
After discovering VeinCentre’s website and reading patient reviews, Sue finally felt hopeful.
“It made me feel like there was something that could be done,” she said. “It helped me feel better about going ahead with treatment.”
Sue admitted to feeling a bit apprehensive before her consultation, but also excited. During her colour duplex ultrasound scan, her Vascular Consultant recommended a tailored treatment plan, including EVLA, foam sclerotherapy, and avulsions.
“I was in and out in an hour,” she said. “I felt relaxed, and Dr Regi really put me at ease – he even sang Christmas songs to me during treatment, which really helped!”
She described the experience as “not painful at all – only slightly uncomfortable.” She even went straight back to work afterwards!
“The team were professional, friendly, and made me feel completely at ease.”
Life After Treatment
The results have been nothing short of life-changing for Sue.
“Immediately after treatment, those annoying symptoms that were always on my mind just went!” she said.
Since then, Sue has enjoyed summer holidays and warm weather with a brand-new sense of confidence.
“Since treatment, I’ve been wearing shorts non-stop. I had the treatment 10 weeks ago, and the veins have completely gone – my life has been changed!”
Her advice to others?
“I would highly recommend it – the results have been so worth it! My advice to anyone struggling with varicose veins is to go for a consultation at VeinCentre. It’s not a lengthy process at all!”
