Varicose Vein Treatments with Radio Frequency Closure & Sclerotherapy Treatments

Radio Frequency Closure and Sclerotherapy Vein treatments at the Vein & Skin Care Institute will reduce the pain and unsightly appearance of varicose veins with outstanding results using

Varicose veins are large, protuberant veins beneath the skin's surface. The valves in these veins no longer function properly. Consequently, blood is allowed to flow downward creating increased pressure, and dilation of, veins. Varicose veins can result in debilitating medical complications.

At the Vein & Skin Care Institute, varicose veins are treated with Radio Frequency Closure®, A minimally - invasive surgical procedure that uses radio frequency energy to occlude, or close, the saphenous vein running down the inside of the leg.

The Closure catheter delivers bipolar radio frequency energy directly into the vein wall. The passage of heat through the vein wall causes resistive heating, which shrinks the vessel. The Closure catheters flexible electrodes let the vessel collapse around the catheter closing the vein and eliminating reflux, or "valve leakage."

Below are results from different varicose vein treatments. As you can see from the pictures, Radio Frequency Closure gives the best results and is minimally invasive and lets most patients walk out of the medical facility within hours. Closure quickly normalizes venous blood pressure in a treated leg. This typically results in a reduction or elimination of pain or swelling associated with varicose veins. Convalescence following stripping can take weeks and involve significant pain.
