Boys beware: Dr. Raymond Little discusses onset of varicose veins in men

One certainty in the field of varicose vein treatment that Dr. Raymond Little moves in is that this problem is not singularly found in women. Men can also suffer from varicose vein problems, especially young men whose activities fit the cause.

Of course, many men consider varicose veins as women’s problems, affecting only those of age, and are generally not a male concern. However, approximately 56 percent of men of all ages suffer from swollen veins, and according to British research, these veins can cause “heavy leg” sensation, discoloration, bleeding, and even skin ulcers, hindering daily activity.

What causes this problem involves the veins in a person’s lower extremities. When in an erect position, the blood within the body will pool in these lower veins, expanding its walls and straining them. According to studies done by Dr. Raymond Little’s colleagues, over time, this straining will cause the vein to stop returning to their previous taut condition. According to some French researchers as well, some people with a certain genetic variation will be even more susceptible to this disorder because of weaker veins, giving them twice the risk of gaining the disorder.


When a person’s vein walls are weaker than the usual, the veins will expand and the valves which regulate blood flow in that vein won’t meet, allowing blood to flow in the opposite direction. Therefore, men should also remain wary of varicose veins and should get themselves checked for the problem.

Dr. Raymond Little: Different treatments for varicose veins

Varicose veins result from weak veins. Vein care expert Dr. Raymond Little of The Vein Institute & MediSpa offers several options in managing and treating this condition.

From Raymond Little
Varicose veins come in different stages and types. Therefore, doctors use varying methods in treating each patient. The Vein Institute & MediSpa recommends the following treatment options:
1. Compression stockings
Although these are not intended to treat varicose veins, they are helpful in alleviating pain caused by the enlarged veins. They also aid in the proper carrying of blood from the legs back to the heart.
2. Sclerotherapy
This method mainly treats spider veins or small varicose veins by injecting a humble quantity of sclerosing liquid into the affected vein. This is a non-invasive technique that can be performed quickly by a physician.

3. Surgical vein stripping
Specialists like Dr. Raymond Little use this surgical technique in stripping out the diseased vein from the body. It needs a considerable amount of time to perform and to heal. To surgically remove the veins, incisions are made to hook them out.
4. Endovenous Laser Therapy
Laser treatments such as the Endovenous Laser Therapy have become popular in the treatment of varicose veins. This less invasive method carries laser energy in the laser fiber that is inserted into the vein.

Raymond Little: A convenient and non-invasive way to facial rejuvenation

Raymond Little specializes in facial rejuvenation using popular cosmetic surgery procedures that are painless, non-invasive, and convenient. He regularly administers Botox and dermafiller injections to patients who are seeking younger-looking, tighter, smoother facial skin.
Botox and dermafillers are two of the most in-demand and widely-used cosmetic substances that have gained a cult following worldwide because of their anti-aging properties and their ability to “halt” the aging clock. Botox “erases” fine lines and wrinkles. The substance is injected beneath the skin, relaxing muscle movements, which then helps soften the appearance of wrinkles. Common areas that are injected with Botox include the forehead, the corners of the mouth, and the crinkles surrounding the eyes.

Raymond Little also offers dermafillers, which reduce frown lines, crow’s feet, laugh lines, and smile lines. Patients can opt to have this treatment done in conjunction with Botox for maximum results. Both are short, in-office procedures that do not require any recovery period – at worst, you can expect redness and slight puffiness, but you should be able to perform your regular tasks without any problems. You can even have the procedure done during your lunch hour, grab a bite, and then return to work on time.

From Raymond Little

Dr. Little advises his patients to maintain a stringent skin care regimen – cleansing, toning, moisturizing twice a day and applying sun screen during the day – to maximize the effects of the procedures.
