Choosing The
Right Vein Treatment
Emage Vein Centers specializes in low-risk, effective outpatient treatments for varicose veins, CVI and similar conditions. Treatments can be performed in the comfort and privacy of our offices, allowing you to walk out and resume normal life with little interruption. Where appropriate, we also combine different treatments into single sessions, minimizing the need for multiple appointments.
Compression Therapy
Compression therapy is often recommended as a first-line, non-invasive vein treatment. Patients with lower extremity pain from leg swelling or enlarged veins wear compression clothing, like stockings, to relieve symptoms or aid ulcer healing.
Ablation Treatments
Ablation treatments are minimally invasive procedures that close abnormal veins and redirect blood into healthy veins for symptom relief. Emage offers several innovative ablation options, including:
- Radiofrequency ablation (RFA): Delivers high-frequency radio waves via a tiny catheter, heating the problem vein and causing its walls to shrink and close.
- VenaSeal™: A small amount of a specially formulated medical adhesive helps seal or close unhealthy veins.
- Varithena™: A concentrated foam solution is used to seal or close malfunctioning veins.
- Sclerotherapy: This common treatment for spider veins uses a tiny needle to inject a liquid or foam solution into the vein, causing it to contract and rerouting blood to normal veins.
Microphlebectomy
This minimally invasive treatment removes portions of varicose veins through tiny, slit-like incisions in the skin that do not require stitches. The procedure requires minimal downtime and only necessitates a local anesthetic.
What To Expect
During Vein Treatment at Emage
During your treatment journey with Emage Vein Centers, expect exceptional care backed by honesty and transparency.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
During your first visit to Emage Vein Centers for chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) and varicose vein disease, our providers will request a thorough medical history and perform a comprehensive physical exam. We’ll also take the time to understand your unique concerns and goals for vein treatment, so we can make the best treatment recommendation for your needs.
Step 2: Vein Evaluation and Ultrasound Imaging
As part of your initial consultation, we’ll complete a full evaluation of the venous system in your legs. The process usually includes an ultrasound of the leg veins. Ultrasounds are painless, non-invasive diagnostic imaging performed by expert ultrasonographers.
Step 3: Treatment Recommendations
After our evaluation, we’ll analyze the results and recommend a customized vein treatment plan. Our priority is to ensure you feel included, reassured, and confident in your vein care decisions. Every patient will receive detailed information about what to expect before, during and after treatment, and our team will be there to guide and support you throughout the process.
