Rather than relying on visual guidance alone, ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy uses a device called a colour Doppler ultrasound, which improves reliability and safety in certain cases.
This is the destruction of the affected vein wall by endovascular heat generated by an energy source (laser or radiofrequency) inserted directly into the vein using ultrasound guidance.
This is non-thermal ablation of the varicose vein. A catheter is inserted into the vein and sclerosing foam (scleromousse) is injected simultaneously. The catheter damages the innermost layer of the vein, thereby enhancing the efficacy of the sclerosing foam.
This is an endovascular procedure that literally glues the vein walls together, reducing the lumen to a virtual space. It works in the same way as the better-known "Attack" glue.
This is a mini-invasive surgical procedure that removes the varicose branches of the saphenous vein through small 2‑mm incisions.
No.
No, but because of the existing venous disease, other veins could be affected, developing into varicose veins in the same area that has already been treated or elsewhere.
No rest is required by laser, radiofrequency and foam sclerotherapy treatment.
Yes. Laser procedures and Foam sclerotherapy are done in Local anesthesia.
Post-operative recovery from modern surgical procedures, including thermal ablation techniques, is painless and practically discomfort-free.
From 4 to 6 weeks.
There are a various modern procedures like laser ,Radio frequency and Foam sclerotherapy which are highly advance ,painless & bloodless to treat varicose veins,
Modern laser ablation techniques are completely safe in comparison with former surgical procedures.
Yes, patient will be discharge on the same day after treatment
