There are many reasons why people develop varicose and spider veins. The most common cause is genetic – if you have a family history of veins then you are more likely to develop them. Pregnancy, weight gain and lifestyle can also all contribute to the appearance of your veins.

Varicose veins are usually blue or purple and bulge above the skin. Spider veins are often red and are much finer with no bulging. When you have veins there is always a possibility that you may have underlying vein issues which are contributing to the veins you can see on the surface. At your initial consultation with the Varicose Vein Clinic, Dr Paul or Dr Jamie-Lea will perform an ultrasound scan to investigate the veins under the surface and develop an appropriate treatment plan based on the findings of the scan.

Our initial consultation has a fee of $250 and you will get approximately half of this back from Medicare. We treat all sorts of veins including, leg veins, vulval veins, hand veins and breast veins. The Varicose Vein Clinic was established in 2008 and we have literally thousands of happy clients.

Make 2023 your year to finally do something about your veins. There is no need to put up with achy, unsightly, varicose or spider veins anymore.
