What Kinds of Treatment Does VEININNOVATIONS Offer?
VEININNOVATIONS offers the most comprehensive, state-of-the-art
laser treatment modalities available for venous disease. Your treatment
plan is tailored to you, depending on your specific condition and goals.
Some of our treatment approaches include:
VNUS Closure® (radiofrequency-induced closure of the greater saphenous
vein): Your VI physician administers local anesthesia, then uses a needle puncture
or small incision site to insert a small catheter into the GSV. An electrode
on the end of the catheter produces heat energy to close the vein. This type
of vein closure is done in our office and allows for quick recovery – most
patients return to normal activities within one day. Data reveal a VNUS Closure® success
rate of well over 90%.
Sclerotherapy: This treatment involves injecting a
special kind of fluid with a micro-needle into the affected vein. This
fluid causes the vein walls to become non-functional and, in most cases,
disappear.
ELAS (endo-luminal laser ablation of the GSV):
With this office-based approach, your VI physician administers a local anesthetic
and uses a needle puncture to insert a small-diameter laser filament into the
vein. He uses the laser to make the vein walls non-functional. Patients report
minimal post-operative discomfort from ELAS.
Laser Treatment of Leg Veins: Your VI physician may
also use lasers to produce selective light-induced thermal damage to
small spider veins, causing them to disappear.
Treatment at VEININNOVATIONS most often involves a
combination of sclerotherapy and laser treatment. |
A QUOTE:
“As an Interventional Radiologist, I am extremely excited about how the
specialty is moving to the forefront of leading-edge medical technologies. Interventional
radiology treatments such as those we offer at VEININNOVATIONS
allow us to treat patients with far less invasive techniques. That means safer
and more effective treatments and quicker recovery time.”

What Is VEININNOVATIONS?
VEININNOVATIONS is the first comprehensive vein clinic
in Atlanta to offer start-to-finish diagnosis and laser treatment of venous
disease. We don’t simply treat the surface problem of spider or varicose
veins – we use the latest diagnostic tools to learn what underlying
causes or problems might also need attention.
That’s because having great legs for life is more than cosmetic –
it’s having healthy legs from the inside out.
Our board-certified VI physicians are part of Diagnostic Imaging Specialists
