CHIVA (Conservative Hemodynamic Cure of Venous Insufficiency with Ambulatory Conservative Treatment and Microsurgery) is an advanced technique for treating lower limb varicose veins that preserves the complete venous reflux network. The recovery time and the extent of functional and caliber restoration of dilated and twisted veins after CHIVA surgery can vary among individuals. Here are some general guidelines:

Typically, patients can expect to see improvements in the appearance of their veins within several weeks to months after surgery. However, complete recovery may take longer, depending on the severity of the varicose veins and the overall health of the individual.

The goal of CHIVA surgery is to restore normal venous function and alleviate symptoms of blood reflux and varicose veins. By preserving the main venous reflux pathways and correcting abnormal shunting, the normal venous return function can gradually be restored.

CHIVA surgery does not involve the removal or excision of veins; instead, it focuses on preserving the integrity of the veins to restore their function. The surgery is not aimed at directly altering the morphology or size of the veins, so the dilation and twisting of the veins may not immediately change. However, over time, the caliber of the veins may gradually return to normal.

For veins that have regained normal function but still have visible cosmetic concerns, the primary focus is on functional recovery. For those with specific cosmetic needs, additional complementary treatment options can be considered after assessing the pros and cons.

It’s important to note that the actual recovery time and results may vary among individuals due to differences in factors such as individual characteristics, surgical techniques, and postoperative rehabilitation. If you’re considering CHIVA surgery or have concerns about the postoperative recovery, I recommend consulting with experts from Dr. Smile Medical Group who can provide more specific and personalized advice.

CHIVA作为目前治疗下肢静脉曲张最先进的技术，保留了完整的静脉回流网络，术后需要多久时间，扩张扭曲的静脉会逐渐恢复正常的功能和口径？

CHIVA（Conservative Hemodynamic Cure of Venous Insufficiency with Ambulatory Conservative Treatment and Microsurgery）是一种保留完整静脉回流网络的治疗下肢静脉曲张的先进技术。术后恢复时间和静脉的功能和口径恢复程度因个体差异而异，以下是一般情况下的一些指导：

通常情况下，患者可以期望在手术后数周至数个月内看到外观上的改善。然而，完全的恢复可能需要更长的时间，具体时间取决于静脉曲张的严重程度和个体的整体健康状况。

CHIVA手术的目标是恢复静脉的正常功能，减轻血液逆流和静脉曲张的症状。术后，通过保留主要的静脉回流路径，纠正异常的分流，使得静脉的正常回流功能恢复，。

CHIVA手术不涉及去除或切除静脉，而是通过保留静脉的完整性来恢复其功能。手术目的不是直接改变静脉的形态或大小，静脉的扩张和扭曲程度可能不会立即改变。但随着时间的推移，静脉的口径也可能逐渐恢复正常。

对于功能已经恢复正常，但是血管外观上仍然可见的静脉，一般以功能恢复为主要目标。有特殊美容需求的，可以在评估利弊后进一步采取补充治疗手段。

需要注意的是，每位患者实际的恢复时间和效果可能因个体差异、手术技术和术后康复等多种因素而有所不同。如果您正在考虑接受CHIVA手术或担心术后恢复情况，请咨询张强医生集团的专家，他们可以提供更具体和个性化的建议。
