Written by Palm Clinic

These are the before and after treatment photographs of an active 36 year old man. He first noticed varicose veins aged 17, but they had become much worse in the previous five years. His symptoms were of aching and pain in both legs, but worse in his right leg and foot. There was swelling in both lower legs, ankles and feet

Following consultation and Ultrasound examination at Palm Clinic, we assessed him to be a suitable candidate for treatment with Endovenous Ablation and Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy, which he underwent.

His symptoms were markedly improved at his three month check. All symptoms were resolved at one year, and the swelling disappeared.

The “after” photographs were taken at twelve months post treatment.

He was delighted with the results.

Breast Reduction One Year Post Baby

Written by Palm Clinic

This 37 year old woman had a one year old baby and had long since stopped breast feeding but was bothered by her large breasts which were 14G cup size and causing lots of discomfort with back pain.

Liposuction immediately removed the back pain and by three months she was down to a 14DD and feeling much more comfortable.

Not having scars for a young woman is a huge benefit and by removing the weight off the breasts there is a resultant lift of the breasts as well.

She is thrilled with her new comfortable smaller breasts.
