Thinking ahead Before you take your first steps into married life, ensure you put your best legs forward.

f you are planning a walk down the aisle anytime soon you might want to spare a thought for your legs. Even if your gown is going to be floor length you might not want those unsightly veins forever captured in your honeymoon album. The good news is that you don’t need a hospital stay because even the most severe varicose veins can be treated non-surgically. However, you still need to factor treatment time into your wedding planning list. Most patients require multiple sessions and treatments are 4-6 weeks apart, which means you might be looking at achieving results five months from your initial consultation. “We like to review patients once they complete treatment and before they go on any long-haul flights,” Dr Kemp from The Leg Vein Doctor says.

Unfortunately, venous disease can be hereditary, so you might be needing to bring the mother of the bride along with you. It’s not uncommon for mothers and daughters to have concurrent appointments. If it isn’t your legs you are concerned about, you might need to use the wedding as an excuse to get your hubby-to-be to pay attention to himself before his veins worsen. A large number of males have bookings made by their better halves after years of putting up with complaints about the pain. “If you have left it too late to start treatment don’t despair, we can recommend spray tan for the special day. Our advice, however, would be if you really are concerned to come in before you plan to start a family.” THE LEG VEIN DOCTOR 465 MILTON RD, AUCHENFLOWER P 3720 9912 THELEGVEINDOCTOR.COM
