Relax. Even if you are one of the millions of people who suffer from spider veins or varicose veins, we have a treatment plan that is safe, effective, and minimally invasive.

With today’s favorable insurance coverage and Medicare coverage, the treatment of varicose veins is available to many patients. Our comprehensive, non-surgical approach includes Endovenous Laser Treatment, as well as ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy.

Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is a quick, minimally invasive laser treatment that requires no hospitalization and no complicated surgery.

The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. There are no incisions. Instead, a small optic fiber is inserted through a needle into the varicose vein under ultrasound guidance. The laser is activated and, subsequently the vein closes. Once the vein is closed, the blood that was circulating through the vein is naturally rerouted to other healthy veins. Over time, the varicose vein is absorbed by the body.

Most patients will require Sclerotherapy in conjunction with EVLT to treat smaller veins.

Our combined use of treatments allows us to meet the needs of our patients by treating the smallest spider vein to the largest ropelike varicose vein.

Neither option requires hospitalization or surgery. Instead, each is performed in the physician's office. After treatment, we may recommend you wear a compression stocking and limit your activity for 48 hours.

Generally, the patient can be back on his or her feet resuming normal activities the next day, or even sooner.

Check patient forms for follow-up care of varicose and spider vein treatments.
