Venous Ablation Therapy

The benefits of Venous ablation:

• In most cases, venous ablation results in permanent removal of varicose veins because it effectively removes the refluxing source of the disease
• It offers immediate relief to patients who have undergone the procedure
• There will be no visible scarring as the procedure involves making a very small incision that does not have to be stitched closed
• It has fewer complications compared with vein stripping techniques
• After the procedure, patients can return to normal activities with little to no pain in the treated area
• The procedure does not require an overnight stay in a hospital

Microphlebectomy

Microphlebectomy has several benefits over other varicose vein treatments:

• It is minimally invasive
• It requires little downtime, so you can return to your daily activities after the procedure
• Shorter recovery period
• Long-term results without visible scarring
• Performed on an outpatient basis

Sclerotherapy
