Your Path to Healthier, More Beautiful Legs

REQUEST CONSULTATION

Tired of hiding your legs? Longing for the days of effortlessly slipping into shorts or a skirt without a second thought about varicose veins? You’re not alone. Millions of adults suffer from the discomfort and self-consciousness of varicose veins, often enduring aching, heaviness, and unsightly bulging beneath their skin.

But these twisted, ropy veins are more than just a cosmetic concern. They’re a medical condition known as venous insufficiency, where weakened valves disrupt blood flow, causing blood to pool and veins to swell. Ignoring varicose veins can lead to more serious complications, including blood clots and ulcers.

You might have tried home remedies like compression stockings or leg elevation, but these offer only temporary relief. Over-the-counter creams and lotions promise the world but often fall short of addressing the root cause. And the thought of invasive surgery with lengthy recovery times and potential scarring can be daunting.

Highly Effective, Minimally Invasive Solutions for Lasting Relief

Fortunately, there’s a new era of varicose vein treatment at Columbus Vascular Vein & Aesthetics, where advanced, minimally invasive procedures provide lasting relief without the pain and hassle of traditional surgery.

While every patient’s treatment plan is unique, most patients require a series of treatment sessions over several weeks or months to achieve optimal results. This systematic approach ensures thorough treatment of affected veins and the best possible outcomes.

Columbus Vascular Vein & Aesthetics offers a range of cutting-edge solutions to help you achieve healthier, more beautiful legs:

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)

This highly effective treatment uses radiofrequency energy to gently heat and close off the affected vein. It’s a quick procedure, usually taking less than an hour, with minimal anesthesia required. 

Most patients can return to their normal activities right away. RFA boasts a high success rate in treating varicose veins and relieving symptoms by redirecting blood flow to healthier veins. Insurance coverage for RFA is widely available.

  • High Success Rate – RFA has a high success rate in eliminating varicose veins. Studies have shown that it is effective in closing the targeted vein in a significant majority of cases.
  • Minimally Invasive – Unlike traditional surgical methods, RFA does not require large incisions. It involves inserting a small catheter into the affected vein under ultrasound guidance, making it less invasive.
  • Quick Recovery – The procedure typically allows patients to return to their normal activities within a few days. Post-procedure discomfort is usually mild and temporary, with some patients experiencing minimal bruising and swelling.
  • Reduced Pain – Compared to open surgery, RFA generally results in less post-procedure pain. Patients may experience some discomfort during the procedure but this is usually managed with local anesthesia or light sedation.
  • Low Risk of Complications – The risk of complications such as infection, bleeding, or nerve damage is low compared to more invasive surgical procedures.
  • Aesthetic Improvement – By eliminating varicose veins, RFA can significantly improve the appearance of the legs, which can boost patient confidence and overall quality of life.
  • Symptom Relief – Varicose veins often cause symptoms like heaviness, fatigue, itching, and pain in the legs. RFA can provide relief from these symptoms by addressing the underlying venous insufficiency.
  • Reduced Risk of Further Problems – Treating varicose veins through RFA reduces the risk of further complications such as venous ulcers or blood clots that can arise from untreated venous insufficiency.
  • Improved Functionality – By improving blood flow in the legs, patients may notice better mobility and reduced tiredness in their legs after undergoing RFA.
  • Treatment Series – Most patients require multiple treatment sessions, scheduled several weeks apart, to achieve complete resolution of their varicose veins
Your Vein Health Matters

Vein problems don’t just affect your appearance – they impact your quality of life. Let our experts help you address both the symptoms and the root cause.

Sclerotherapy

This minimally invasive procedure targets spider veins, small varicose veins, and venous malformations. It involves injecting a solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and fade. 

The procedure is performed in an outpatient setting and usually takes less than an hour. There is minimal downtime after sclerotherapy. Ultrasound can be used to make the treatment more accurate, especially for deeper veins. Sclerotherapy is often covered by insurance.

  • Effective in Reducing Appearance – Sclerotherapy can significantly reduce the appearance of spider veins and small varicose veins, improving the cosmetic appearance of the skin.
  • Minimally Invasive – The procedure is relatively simple and involves injecting a solution into the affected veins using a fine needle. It does not require surgical incisions or general anesthesia.
  • Quick Recovery – Recovery time is typically short. Patients can usually resume their normal activities immediately after the procedure, although they may be advised to avoid strenuous activities for a few days.
  • Low Risk of Complications – While any medical procedure carries some risk, sclerotherapy has a low incidence of serious complications when performed by an experienced healthcare provider.
  • High Success Rate – Sclerotherapy has a high success rate in closing off problematic veins and preventing their return. However, it may require multiple sessions to achieve optimal results.
  • Reduced Symptoms – For patients experiencing symptoms such as pain, discomfort, or swelling due to varicose or spider veins, sclerotherapy can provide relief by closing off these problematic veins.
  • Variety of Solutions Available – Different types of sclerosing agents are available (e.g., sodium tetradecyl sulfate, polidocanol), allowing for tailored treatment based on individual needs and vein characteristics.
  • Long-Term Results – While new spider veins can develop over time, the treated veins generally do not recur. This makes sclerotherapy a long-term solution for many patients.
  • Improved Quality of Life – By addressing both cosmetic concerns and physical discomfort associated with varicose or spider veins, sclerotherapy can improve overall quality of life for many patients.
  • Progressive Treatment – Multiple sessions are typically needed, spaced 4-6 weeks apart, to effectively treat all affected veins and achieve desired results

Varithena Vein Treatment

This innovative procedure uses a microfoam injection to gently close off the affected vein, causing the vein to collapse and seal shut. Your body then gradually absorbs the treated vein. 

Varithena is a minimally invasive treatment with minimal discomfort and quick recovery times. The procedure takes less than an hour, and no incisions or stitches are required. Patients typically report minimal discomfort, with a low pain rate at the injection site. 

  • Effective in Reducing Symptoms: Varithena has been shown to reduce symptoms such as pain, itching, and swelling associated with varicose veins.
  • Closure of Varicose Veins: The treatment is effective in closing the targeted varicose veins, which can improve the appearance of the affected area.
  • Minimally Invasive: The procedure involves injecting the foam directly into the vein, making it a minimally invasive treatment compared to surgical options.
  • Quick Procedure: Treatments are typically quick, often completed in a doctor’s office setting without the need for hospitalization.
  • Rapid Recovery: Patients usually experience minimal downtime and can return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure.
  • Reduced Bruising: Compared to some other treatments, Varithena may result in less bruising and swelling post-procedure.
  • Well-Tolerated: Clinical trials have shown that Varithena is generally well-tolerated by patients. Common side effects are usually mild and temporary.
  • Low Risk of Serious Complications: The risk of serious complications such as deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism is low.
  • Suitable for Different Types of Veins: Varithena is indicated for the treatment of incompetent great saphenous veins, accessory saphenous veins, and visible varicosities of the great saphenous vein system above and below the knee.
  • Improved Appearance: By closing and reducing the size of varicose veins, Varithena can lead to an improved appearance of the legs.
  • Backed by Clinical Studies: The effectiveness and safety of Varithena have been demonstrated through clinical studies, providing confidence in its use.

While some patients may see improvement after one session, a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart is typically needed for optimal results. Your provider will create a customized treatment plan based on your specific condition.
