Endovenous Laser and Radiofrequency Ablation

Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) are minimally invasive procedures used to treat varicose veins and venous insufficiency. They involve the use of laser or radiofrequency energy to heat and close off the affected vein, redirecting blood flow to healthier vessels.

Foam Sclerotherapy

Foam sclerotherapy is a procedure used to treat varicose veins and spider veins. It involves injecting a foam-like solution into the affected vein, causing it to close and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. This technique is particularly useful for larger veins or when other treatments are not suitable.

Phlebectomy

Phlebectomy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to remove varicose veins close to the skin's surface. Small incisions are made, and the veins are physically removed using a special hook or forceps.

Glue Embolization

Glue embolization is a technique used to treat varicose veins, particularly in cases where traditional procedures may not be suitable. It involves injecting a medical adhesive (glue) into the affected vein, sealing it off and rerouting blood flow through healthier veins.
