Why Early Treatment Matters
Varicose veins often worsen over time as damaged veins continue to stretch and weaken. Early treatment can help relieve symptoms, improve circulation, and reduce the risk of future complications.
Improve Circulation
Restore healthy blood flow by closing damaged veins.
Prevent Disease Progression
Treat varicose veins before they lead to more serious complications.
Faster Recovery
Most minimally invasive vein treatments allow patients to return to normal activities within one to two days.

Understanding Varicose Veins
What Are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins develop when the valves inside your veins stop functioning properly. Instead of flowing back toward the heart, blood begins pooling inside the veins, causing them to enlarge, twist, and become visible beneath the skin.
Although commonly seen in the legs, varicose veins can affect overall circulation and become increasingly symptomatic over time.
What Happens If Left Untreated?
Without treatment, varicose veins may continue to worsen, leading to chronic venous insufficiency, persistent swelling, skin discoloration, venous ulcers, bleeding, or blood clots.
Early diagnosis and treatment can help prevent these complications while improving comfort and circulation.
Common Symptoms
Patients with varicose veins may experience:
- Enlarged, twisted blue or purple veins
- Aching or throbbing legs
- Heaviness or fatigue
- Swelling of the ankles or lower legs
- Burning or itching over affected veins
- Leg cramps, especially at night
- Restless legs
- Skin discoloration around the ankles
- Symptoms that worsen after prolonged standing
Risk Factors
Several factors increase the likelihood of developing varicose veins, including:
- Family history
- Aging
- Pregnancy
- Obesity
- Occupations requiring prolonged standing
- Lack of regular exercise
- Previous blood clots
Varicose Vein Treatment Options
If compression stockings, exercise, or lifestyle changes have not relieved your symptoms, minimally invasive vein treatment may be the next step.

Minimally Invasive Treatment for Varicose Veins
At NovaGen Interventional, we offer a variety of minimally invasive treatments based on your individual vein anatomy and symptoms.
Endovenous Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) use heat energy to close damaged veins from the inside. Once the vein is sealed, blood naturally reroutes through healthy veins, improving circulation and relieving symptoms.
Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy
A specialized solution is injected into smaller varicose or spider veins, causing them to collapse and gradually be absorbed by the body.
Image-Guided Vein Evaluation
Using advanced ultrasound imaging, we carefully evaluate your circulation before recommending the treatment best suited for your condition.
Every treatment plan is customized to provide the safest and most effective results.
What Happens During Treatment?
Most vein procedures are performed in the office under local anesthesia.
Using ultrasound guidance, your physician precisely treats the affected vein through a tiny needle puncture or small catheter. Once the damaged vein is closed, healthy veins naturally take over blood flow.
Most procedures take less than one hour, and patients return home the same day.
Benefits of Minimally Invasive Vein Treatment
Office-Based Procedures
Most treatments are completed in a comfortable outpatient setting.
Faster Recovery
Many patients return to work and normal activities within one to two days.
Improved Appearance
Reduce the visibility of enlarged veins while relieving uncomfortable symptoms.
Long-Lasting Results
Closing diseased veins improves circulation and provides lasting symptom relief for many patients.

Frequently Asked Questions About Varicose Vein Treatment
Am I a Candidate for Vein Treatment?
If you have painful, swollen, or visible varicose veins that haven't improved with conservative treatment, you may be a candidate. A consultation and ultrasound vein evaluation will help determine the best treatment option.
Are Vein Treatments Painful?
Most minimally invasive vein procedures involve only local anesthesia and cause very little discomfort. Patients typically return home immediately after treatment.
How Long Does Recovery Take?
Most patients return to normal daily activities within one or two days. Walking is encouraged immediately after treatment, although strenuous exercise may be limited for a short period.
Will My Varicose Veins Come Back?
The treated veins do not reopen, but new varicose veins can develop over time due to genetics, aging, or other risk factors. Routine follow-up and healthy lifestyle habits can help maintain long-term results.
Will Insurance Cover Treatment?
Many insurance plans cover medically necessary treatment for symptomatic varicose veins. Our team will verify your benefits and explain your coverage before beginning treatment.
