VenaSeal

What is VenaSeal™?

VenaSeal™ is a minimally invasive procedure for treating venous insufficiency, particularly varicose veins. Unlike traditional methods, VenaSeal™ does not rely on heat to seal the veins, rather a medical grade adhesive is used to close them. This innovative approach offers a less invasive and more comfortable option for patients.

What are the Benefits of Venaseal™?

Non-invasive, non-surgical procedure
The procedure generally takes less than 60 minutes
Reduce the risk of nerve damage
Quick and simple outpatient procedure
No preparation, downtime, or recovery period

What to Expect During a VenaSeal™ Treatment?

During a VenaSeal™ treatment, patients can expect a straightforward, minimally invasive experience. The procedure typically begins with a vascular specialist numbing the area with a local anesthetic. Following this, an ultrasound is used to identify the problem vein. Once located, a catheter is gently inserted into the vein via a tiny incision. The specially formulated medical adhesive is then skillfully applied, sealing the vein shut. As the vein is sealed, blood is naturally rerouted through healthier veins, and the treated vein undergoes a gradual absorption process, eventually becoming invisible.

Throughout the treatment, your StrideCare provider will address any concerns patients have to ensure they are informed and comfortable throughout the process.
