Sclerotherapy:
Sclerotherapy is injection of a solution into a vein to cause it to disappear. TVFC treats spider veins and varicose veins using concentrated saline, sotradecol, or polidocanol with very small needles, done in our office. Most patients find the discomfort of treatment to be minimal. Although complications can arise from treatment, sclerotherapy has a history of being the safest solution to unsightly veins for many, many people.
Ambulatory Phlebectomy:
The removal of segments of a vein has been found to be sufficient to close that vein down to further blood flow. Instead of the old-fashioned "stripping", segmental or ambulatory phlebectomy is much kinder to the body. It has less scarring, less pain involved, less recovery time.
Foam Sclerotherapy:
Varicose veins don't always qualify for venous closure, as far as insurance is concerned.
Foam sclerotherapy is an option for some varicose veins in this case. It uses a "foamed" sclerosant to displace the blood in the vein being treated, and causes the vein to collapse. Followed by compression with hosiery, the vein seals shut. This is a useful treatment when VNUS is not an option.
Sigvaris Compression Hosiery:
After vein treatment, patients wear prescription stockings.This is an excellent line of Medical compression hosiery and we believe you will find it to be the most economical in town.
