Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) treatment is one of the minimally invasive for treating chronic venous insufficiency and related conditions like varicose veins, spider veins, reticular veins etc. It involves shrinking the diseases vein using the radiofrequency energy. A catheter will be inserted into the diseased vein, applying heat on the vein walls and contracting collagen. The blood then reroutes to healthier veins, improving blood flow, and the treated vein scar down and dissolved into local tissues over time.
The radiofrequency ablation procedure is convenient and minimally invasive, making patients prefer it over vascular surgery. Consult our specialist at VeinRx to know more about this treatment option and other non-surgical solutions.
