Keeping Your Legs Looking Supermodel Perfect.

WORTH IT
As a model, most specifically a Leg model body double. I have to keep my legs in tip-top shape. It's vitally important for me to have a great vascular function. My legs are very long so it is imperative that I have functioning venous valves in the groin and behind the knees. I was being to notice that by the end of the day my ankles and calves would swell up. I also noticed that my ankles were developing broken red veins. My agent recommended The vascular consultant surgeon, professor Philip Coleridge Smith who set up The British Vein Institute.
I made an appointment and dutifully attended the consultation to have vascular duplex ultrasonic imaging. This aided in the investigation of any venous disease or leaking valves. Suffice to say I did have leaking valves, both behind the knees and the groin. He recommended that I have his proprietary technique of pioneering ultrasonic guided foam sclerotherapy. One leg at a time. Given that we are in the middle of COVID19 restrictions. I had the time and was free of any work commitments so i had the treatment.

Hi, so how did it go?

Just returned from my follow up. Everything is exceptional... He truly is the very best vascular surgeon in the London area. I Did have other consultations with other Vascular surgeons, who I personally did not feel comfortable with. Personally, for me, it seemed that all they were interested in was to extract as much money out of me. I was told that I needed this scan, that test and then the treatment. Well, I am so glad I found Phillip's clinic. I attend the upper Wimpole street clinic as it's very convenient for me to get there and back. As you can imagine is a very important consideration if you are to having leg vascular interventions.
I am going back after Christmas to have my hand veins attended to.

My large veins are in good condition but I still have red spider veins after schlerotherapy.
