Varicose Vein Therapy

Varicose vein therapy is a medical treatment used to alleviate symptoms and improve the appearance of varicose veins, which are swollen and enlarged veins that can be seen just under the surface of the skin. Varicose veins are commonly found in the legs and can cause symptoms such as pain, swelling, and fatigue.

Our In-clinic treatments:

  • Sclerotherapy: Injection of a solution into the affected vein to collapse and seal it off.
  • Radiofrequency closure: Use of heat generated by radiofrequency energy to close off the affected vein.

The type of varicose vein therapy that is right for a particular patient depends on several factors, including the location and severity of the varicose veins, the patient’s age and health, and the patient’s personal preferences.

In general, varicose vein therapy is a safe and effective way to alleviate symptoms and improve the appearance of varicose veins. The procedure is usually performed on an outpatient basis, and patients can usually return to their normal activities soon after the procedure. However, it is important to discuss the benefits and risks of each type of varicose vein therapy with your cardiologist to determine the best treatment option for each individual patient.
