Conveniently located to serve the areas of Greenville, SC, Spartanburg, SC, Columbia, SC, Anderson, SC and Asheville, NC
Receiving stem cells for varicose veins is one of the most effective ways to reduce them. Stem cells can be used in an array of cutting-edge treatments that help the body produce new tissue. Varicose veins tend to appear in the legs. They can cause swelling, cramping, and aching in the legs, potentially affecting daily performance and overall quality of life.
If you struggle with swelling, fatigue, or cramping in the legs as a result of varicose veins, treating your varicose veins with stem cells can help you find relief. Stem cells help your body regenerate damaged tissues, improve blood circulation, and support veins that have weakened due to poor blood circulation and pressure.

About Stem Cells for Varicose Veins
At least one-third of the population experience varicose veins. (1) When the vein wall widens as a result of hormonal changes, aging, or genetics, the blood valves are compromised, often resulting in high blood pressure. (2) Hormone levels can also play a part in the development of varicose veins; estrogen and progesterone can affect the structure of the vein wall. (3)
When the endothelium–a layer of cells inside the blood vessels that control the vessels’ ability to open and close–becomes weak, this can also cause varicose veins to appear.
Stem cells can help your body generate new soft tissue and healthy cells for improved vein structures. Colloquially known as “blank cells,” stem cells take on the characteristics of the other cells near them. Depending on what your body needs, they can transform into cells like bone, muscle, or tendon cells. They can also multiply, creating “daughter cells” to help your body generate new, healthy tissue. Stem cells can diminish varicose veins’ appearance and improve blood circulation by helping your body repair the damaged vein wall and rejuvenate the nearby skin barrier.
Benefits
There are several benefits to stem cells for varicose veins, including:
- Smoother skin: You can enjoy smoother skin and a more even skin tone after treating varicose veins with stem cells.
- Lasting results: Since stem cells help your skin regenerate over time, you can enjoy lasting results if you take good care of your body.
- More youthful appearance: Reducing varicose veins can help your skin look more youthful.
- Improved blood circulation: Stem cell therapy can help your body produce new cells to improve circulation.
- Pain relief: By improving your blood circulation, stem cells can also help you find relief from pain.
- Minimally invasive treatment: Administering stem cells to improve the appearance of varicose veins can transform your appearance without surgical intervention.
- Chemical-free therapy: We can improve varicose veins without the downtime of anesthesia or surgical scars.

During your consultation, Dr. Haasis will discuss your current medications, medical history, and lifestyle to determine the best treatment plan for your needs. If you have had stem cell therapy in the past, you should let us know. If there are additional areas you would like to treat, Dr. Haasis can recommend additional procedures to address your needs. Suitable candidates for stem cell therapy for varicose veins would like to:
- Reduce the appearance of visible varicose veins
- Improve swelling, pain, and heaviness in the legs caused by varicose veins

If you are pregnant, we may recommend that you wait to receive stem cell therapy. We can discuss the best treatment plan for your needs during your consultation at one of the Daisy Institute Locations.
Preparation & Treatment Process
During your procedure, our team will apply a topical anesthetic for a more comfortable treatment. Dr. Haasis will administer the stem cells beneath your skin to help your body regenerate new cells to treat your varicose veins. To prepare for your treatment, there are several steps you will need to take:
- Stop smoking temporarily for several weeks
- Get 7-8 hours of rest each night
- Eat healthy meals
- Stop taking medications and supplements that thin your blood
- Stop smoking temporarily
On the day of your treatment, you will need to arrive in comfortable clothing. Dr. Haasis will administer the stem cells in areas where you are experiencing varicose veins. Over the next few weeks, you can notice your body producing new, healthy tissue and reduced varicose veins for a smoother and more youthful look.
After Your Treatment
After your treatment, you can enjoy fewer varicose veins and improved comfort. Many patients find that the treatment reduces the appearance of varicose veins and diminishes discomfort. Although you can return to most of your normal activities afterward, you must rest and avoid intense exercise for approximately 1 week to allow the treatment to settle and take effect.
It is common to experience some minor puffiness near the injection site. You will also need to avoid high-impact activities and refrain from putting any strain on the treatment area. Dr. Haasis can provide specific recovery instructions based on the treatment area. We recommend carefully stretching and being gentle with your body during recovery while the stem cells help your body produce new tissue.
Results
Over the next 6-8 weeks, you can notice that the stem cells gradually improve the appearance of varicose veins. Since stem cells can provide lasting results, you can notice a more youthful appearance and fewer varicose veins for years to come if you take good care of your body.

Stem Cells for Chronic Pain
If you suffer from chronic shoulder, neck, or back pain, we can help you find relief with stem cell treatments. Stem cells can help your body repair vital soft tissue, vertebrae, and joints affecting the spine to help you reduce pain. Dr. Haasis will administer the treatment to the area where you are experiencing chronic pain to improve your well-being.
Autoimmune Disorders
If your immune system is compromised, stem cells can help rebalance your immune system and reduce inflammation. Autoimmune disorders occur when the body’s immune system begins to target its own healthy cells. This can lead to a range of health issues, including chronic fatigue, pain, and inflammation that affect your quality of life. Stem cells can help your body reduce chronic inflammation to improve your quality of life. To learn more, see our guide.
Exosome Therapy
Exosomes are small, fluid-filled membranes that transmit information about areas that need support from your immune system. By communicating with cells in the body, they can accelerate your skin’s ability to heal, enhance your complexion, and help reduce inflammation. Exosomes can accelerate your body’s ability to repair damaged tissue, making them an effective treatment for varicose veins.
