- The space between the pulses should be pink and empty, indicating the disappearance
of the varicosity.

5.1.4. Pragmatic approach

Practical detail that may be used as a guide: 0.3 mm is the smallest diameter needle used in
phlebology (13 x 0.3) - if the vessel can be catheterised it is more than 0.3 mm
Stage 1

red and blue varicosities < 0.3 mm (non catheterisable)

isolated

external leg of ankle

needle K3i

power setting 30%

pulse time 0.2 s
Remain at this stage during one month normally. The result is 100% disappearance
If certain varicosities have not disappeared, check that the effects of thermocoagulation are
not found alongside the varicosity.
Stage 2

varicosities < 0.3 located in the knees and thighs

parameters identical to the first stage
During the 15 days, do only this and await the result.
This procedure is a little more delicate as these varicosities are often fed by a venule.
However, the correct technique should lead to a very positive result approaching 100%.
Stage 3
After six weeks of thermocoagulation apprenticeship, go on to stage 3.

isolated varicosities > 0.3 and < 0.6 mm
(around twice the size of the 0.3 mm phlebological needle)

use needle K6i

perfect the technique

very good result
Stage 4
Varicosities > 0.3 grouped and fed by a reflux
More difficult to tackle - for the best results it is preferable to treat the reflux before using micro
sclerosis.

5.1.5. Evolution of the treatment

Normal evolution of the treatment

D 0: instantaneous disappearance of the varicosity with the appearance of an
erythematous micro-edema

D 8: appearance of very fine micro-scabs corresponding to the pulse points.

D 30: total disappearance
Abnormal evolution of the treatment

Disappearance of the edema followed by reappearance of the varicosity over the days
that follow.

The varicosity, in reality, has not been treated correctly and the edema masked the
