What is Vein Ablation

It is a minimally invasive procedure that ablates or destroys varicose veins, enhancing your cosmetic appearance and overall health. For this technique, we use laser or radiofrequency energy to close off the affected veins and improve blood circulation. 

Our practices offer safe vein ablation that can help treat the symptoms of varicose veins, such as numbness, pain, cramping, swelling, and heaviness in the legs. It can also diminish the risk of complications, such as blood clots, skin ulcers, and bleeding.

Procedure of Vein Ablation

The process of vein ablation is performed by our board-certified cardiologist, who has extensive experience and training in this technique. It is an outpatient process and takes less than an hour to complete. Firstly, our doctor will inject a local anesthetic to numb the area where the vein is located and make a small incision to insert a thin catheter into the vein.

The catheter will deliver a safe dose of laser or radiofrequency energy that heats the vein walls and seals them. After this step, we will remove the catheter and bandage the incision area. You can resume your normal activities within a few days.
