Endovenous Thermal Ablation: Minimally invasive procedures using heat (radiofrequency or laser) to close off larger varicose veins.
Ambulatory Phlebectomy: Small incisions are made to remove superficial veins.
These treatments are typically performed by vascular specialists or dermatologists and are chosen based on individual patient needs.
When to See a Doctor
You should consider visiting a healthcare provider if:
-
You experience pain, swelling, or skin changes near visible veins.
-
Veins become suddenly swollen or warm to the touch.
-
You have a family history of venous disease.
-
Lifestyle changes do not improve symptoms.
A doctor can determine whether you have an underlying circulation issue and recommend the most appropriate treatment.
