Do You Have Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, visible leg veins that can cause:
- aching, cramps, heavy or swollen legs
- visible bulging veins or skin discolouration
- ulceration, bleeding and blood clots
- leg fatigue after standing for long periods
Left untreated, symptoms can worsen, so early treatment is key to improving comfort and helping to prevent complications.

Our Varicose Vein Treatments in Queenstown
At Pulse Vein Care we use advanced, walk-in walk-out treatments for varicose veins, with minimal discomfort and downtime.
Your consultation will include a full assessment and ultrasound scan.
An ultrasound provides our specialist with a detailed map of your veins and arteries so they can make a diagnosis.
Radiofrequency Closure
A heat treatment (RFA) that seals the main feeding vein from the inside, which will eventually fade over time.
We provide all the information you need after treatment.
Medical Adhesive Closure
A sealant treatment (Venaseal) that uses a medical adhesive to seal the main feeding vein, which will eventually fade over time.
We provide all the information you need after treatment.
Sclerotherapy
Perfect for smaller varicose veins, sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure with minimal downtime.
Sclerotherapy involves injecting the smaller veins and is usually performed at the same time as your varicose veins procedure.
We will let you know if sclerotherapy is recommended for you.
Spider Vein Laser
A vascular laser targets small veins and spider veins just under the skin.
This treatment is often used if you only have spider veins or to complete your varicose vein treatment.
We will let you know if sclerotherapy is recommended for you.
