Sclerotherapy and Other Top Varicose Vein Treatments
People seek varicose vein treatment due to an underlying condition called venous insufficiency or venous reflux disease. This condition occurs when the valves inside the veins fail to function properly. Blood pools in the veins, causing them to enlarge and swell. Varicose and spider veins can result from this condition. Sclerotherapy is effective for spider veins, and foam sclerotherapy is used for larger varicose veins.
Why You Should Act Now
Ignoring venous disease can lead to chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), which results in venous ulcers, edema, bleeding, and severe leg pain. Early treatment prevents complications and improves quality of life.

- Highly effective for cosmetic and mild venous disease
2. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
-
Best for: Medium to large varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency.
-
How it works: A catheter delivers radiofrequency energy, generating heat to collapse and seal diseased veins.
-
Benefits:
-
Minimally invasive, performed under local anesthesia

Over 90% success rate
-
Fast recovery—most patients return to normal activities within 24 hours
