Firm Compression 20–30 mmHg
Engineered for clinical support — post-sclerotherapy discomfort, reticular and varicose veins.
Every Vascend garment is true medical graduated compression — knitted under ISO 13485 with medically calibrated pressure, strongest at the ankle and decreasing up the leg. The 20–30 mmHg class delivers our firmest support, engineered so higher pressure still feels wearable — because a garment only works when it's worn.
Most "compression" on the market is simply tight — the same squeeze everywhere, because the fabric contains spandex. Medically graduated compression is engineered and tested to deliver a specific pressure at the ankle that decreases gradually up the leg — the mechanism that supports blood back toward the heart. That calibration, held wash after wash, is what you're paying for and what compression-look socks can't do.
Who it's for: 20–30 mmHg is the class clinicians typically recommend for moderate to severe varicose veins, persistent swelling, and support after vein procedures such as sclerotherapy. If a clinician has told you that you need "medical-grade" or "Class 2" compression, this is usually the class they mean. First-time wearers should start here under clinical guidance.
