In this outpatient procedure, Varithena offers a quick solution for treating varicose veins, often requiring just a single session. This foam prescription-strength medication is administered through an injection into the affected veins. Once injected, it causes the damaged veins to collapse. As a result, blood is redirected to healthier veins in the area. This innovative treatment provides an effective way to address varicose veins efficiently.
The benefits
Varithena offers several benefits for individuals. It enhances blood flow by allowing the body to absorb damaged veins and redirect blood through healthier ones. This treatment also provides significant pain relief from symptoms like swelling and discomfort associated with varicose veins. Additionally, by opting for radio-frequency ablation, patients can avoid the complications and recovery time often associated with traditional surgery.
What to expect
Before beginning treatment, a consultation will occur to address your concerns and goals reviewing your medical history and answer any questions you may have. During your varicose vein treatment, you will be comfortable and the veins affected will be mapped. Most treatment can be administered through 1 to 2 needle pokes to inject medication. Follow-up appointments will be scheduled to monitor the success of the treatment.
