Endovenous Ablation Endovenous ablation has been performed in the United States for more than nine years with more than one hundred thousand successful outcomes. This minimally-invasive treatment is a procedure performed in our office using sonography for guidance. A very small catheter is inserted into the vein being treated. A tumescent anesthetic is then administered to isolate the vein. Next, using an energy source is then applied to the inside of the vein through the catheter. The vein is heated and destroyed. Blood immediately finds an alternative path.

In most cases, this procedure is completed in our office in less than one hour. Patients are able to walk out of the office and resume normal activity within 48 hours of the procedure.

Sclerotherapy Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure used to eliminate varicose veins and spider veins by injecting a solution directly into the vein. The solution irritates the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to swell and stick together. Within a few days, the vessel turns into scar tissue that fades from view and is dissolved naturally within the body.

Schlerotharapy treatment is completed in our office, is nearly pain free and usually takes less than one half hour per schlerotherapy session.
