The best Varicose Vein Treatment offered in New york – VenaSealΒ 

VenaSeal is a state of the art minimally invasive treatment option practiced at premier vein clinics in New York. This seals off defective varicose veins. The procedure is very simple and involves a simple injection, through which a catheter is inserted into the defective varicose vein. Through the catheter, drops of medicated glue are deposited throughout the vein, and the catheter is withdrawn. External pressure is applied on the leg for a few minutes – this ensures that the veins remain closed till the glue hardens and seals off the vein permanently.

The advantages of VenaSeal over other forms of minimally invasive treatment proceduresΒ 

While there are several minimally invasive treatment options, VenaSeal is considered the best method. This is because this technique uses glue to seal the vein, while other methods involve causing injury to the vein and allowing the vein to seal off through scarring. Here are a few advantages of venaSeal over other treatment options:

  • Less peri-procedural discomfort, which eliminates the need for a prior numbing injection
  • Less pain and swelling after the procedure
  • No need to wear compression stockings for a few weeks after the procedure.
There are several options available for vein treatment, and it can be difficult to choose among them. Learn about the best method of Varicose Vein Treatment available in New York.

The advantages of VenaSeal over Vein removal procedures

Some vein doctors may offer surgical vein removal or ambulatory phlebectomy as a treatment option for varicose veins. While the treatment itself is effective, it is actually an invasive surgery. Venaseal gives equivalent treatment results, and has several advantages over vein removal procedures:

  • You do not need advanced anesthesia
  • You do not need prior hospital admission
  • The actual procedure takes less time – you will be in an out in an hour
  • Surgery requires at least two to three weeks of recovery time. You do not need this with VenaSeal – you can get back to work immediately.

Are there any disadvantages to the VenaSeal procedure?

There are two main disadvantages of getting the VenaSeal procedure done:

  • Since this is a new procedure, there is no long term evidence (greater than ten years) of its efficacy. However, physicians who currently use it are extremely satisfied with the results, and there is no reason to believe that it will have any ill effects in the long term.
  • Again, due to the lack of long term evidence, not all insurance plans cover the VenaSeal procedure. The procedure can be expensive if you have to pay out of pocket, and it may be wiser to choose an alternate treatment option if your insurance plan won’t cover this.

What are the alternatives to VenaSeal?

There are three alternatives to VenaSeal:

  • Radiofrequency ablation: This technique needs a prior numbing injection. A small flexible catheter is inserted into the vein, and is attached to a radiofrequency device. This device sends heat through radiofrequency waves into the vein. The heat melts the vein walls. Over time, the vein walls scar and seal off.
  • Endovenous laser ablation: This technique is similar to radiofrequency ablation, but uses laser energy instead. Vein doctors prefer radiofrequency ablation to this, as this can cause more peri-procedural discomfort.
  • ClariVein: In this procedure, the catheter has a rotating head. This is used to disperse a chemical solution throughout the vein. The solution irritates the vein walls and causes it to melt and scar. This is also a fairly recent technique, and may face the same disadvantages as the VenaSeal procedure.
