Safe. Effective. Minimally Invasive Vein Treatment
Doppler Ultrasound is a non-invasive diagnostic imaging test used to evaluate blood flow through arteries and veins. By using high-frequency sound waves and the Doppler effect, this examination helps physicians detect circulatory problems, vascular blockages, and abnormalities in real time—without radiation or injections.
At our clinics in Montreal, Saint-Lambert, and Outremont, Doppler ultrasound examinations are performed using advanced medical imaging equipment by experienced healthcare professionals, ensuring precise and reliable results.

About the Procedure
Sclerotherapy targets abnormal veins that cause discomfort or cosmetic concerns. The injected solution irritates the vein lining, leading to vein closure and natural absorption by the body over time. Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the number, size, and severity of the veins being treated.

Small Varicose Veins
Enlarged or twisted veins that may cause aching, heaviness, or fatigue in the legs.
Reticular Veins
Medium-sized veins that often feed spider veins and contribute to venous circulation issues.
