Varicose vein treatment in Manisa

What is varicose Vein Treatment (Laser, Radiofrequency, Foam)?

Varicose vein treatment closes or removes veins that have widened because of faulty valves. For a main vein that is not working properly, catheter methods such as endovenous laser (EVLA) and radiofrequency ablation (RFA) are used; for medium and small veins, foam or liquid sclerotherapy; for twisting veins under the skin, microphlebectomy. Before treatment, the faulty veins are mapped with Doppler ultrasound.

How is varicose Vein Treatment (Laser, Radiofrequency, Foam) done?

1. Doppler ultrasound mapping of the veins
2. Local anaesthesia and placing a thin catheter in the vein under ultrasound guidance
3. Closing the vein from the inside with laser or radiofrequency energy
4. Foam sclerotherapy or microphlebectomy for remaining veins if needed
5. Compression stockings and walking straight away
