Modern treatments for varicose veins

Instead of major surgery under general anaesthesia, modern treatments target the affected vein from within. Laser, radiofrequency or medical adhesive closes it through a 1–2 mm needle puncture. No incisions or surgical scars, and you usually go home the same day.

Choose your methodBook a consultation

Local anaesthesia

No general anaesthesia. You may feel mild pressure during the procedure, but local anaesthesia is used to prevent pain.

Outpatient

The procedure takes 30–60 minutes, and you usually walk out and go home the same day.

Ultrasound-guided

Every step is monitored in real time using an expert-class General Electric ultrasound system.

5 treatment methods

The method is selected individually

An ultrasound assessment determines which option is suitable, based on the vein's diameter and condition and on your needs. Treatments are sometimes combined for the best result.

Ultrasound vein assessment before choosing varicose vein treatment
The gold standard

Endovenous laser ablation (EVLA)

A thin radial laser fibre is inserted through a needle puncture and uses a 1470 nm laser to close the vein from within. Blood is redirected through healthy veins.

  • Radial laser fibre with 360° contact with the vein wall
  • No incisions, outpatient
  • A well-established treatment with proven effectiveness

The most comfortable

Radiofrequency ablation (RFA)

A Medtronic ClosureFast catheter closes the vein with controlled radiofrequency heat, segment by segment, while monitoring temperature and tissue resistance.

  • Medtronic equipment used by an official clinical trainer
  • Gentler recovery with less bruising
  • Feedback of the electrode with the generator

No compression stockings

VenaSeal medical adhesive closure

VenaSeal closes the vein with medical adhesive rather than heat. Local anaesthesia is needed only at the catheter entry site, not along the entire vein.

  • No compression stockings after the procedure
  • Minimal discomfort; well suited to summer treatment
  • Few restrictions after the procedure

Aesthetics

Sclerotherapy

A fine needle delivers a sclerosant solution that closes spider veins and small veins. They gradually fade. Ultrasound guidance is used when indicated.

  • Treats spider veins and thread veins
  • Ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy for small tributary veins
  • Outpatient treatment with little recovery time

No stitches

Miniphlebectomy

Large varicose tributaries are removed through 1–2 mm needle punctures using a specialised hook. The punctures do not require stitches and usually heal with minimal visible marks.

  • 1–2 mm needle punctures without stitches
  • Often combined with laser or RFA
  • Removes bulging varicose veins in one session

Comparison

Open surgery / Minimally invasive method

What your parents were afraid of has long since changed. Here's a fair comparison.

Open surgery

  • General anaesthesia
  • 5–10 cm incision
  • Stitches and scars
  • 5–7 days in the hospital
  • Rehabilitation 2–4 weeks

Minimally invasive method

  • Local anaesthesia only
  • Puncture 1–2 mm
  • No stitches or visible marks
  • Home the same day
  • Return to your normal routine straight away
Equipment

World-class equipment supporting clinical expertise

Technique and equipment both contribute to the result of minimally invasive treatment. The clinic uses systems recognised in modern phlebology.

ClosureRFG™ generator

Radiofrequency ablation with temperature and tissue resistance control in real time. Made in USA.

1470 nm laser

A gold-standard laser treatment. Single-use radial laser fibre with 360° contact with the vein wall.

Logiq E (expert-class ultrasound system)

All procedures are performed under ultrasound guidance, providing a precise map of the veins.

Nouvag DP 30 pump

The only pump of its kind listed in Ukraine's medical device register. Tumescent anaesthesia reduces anaesthetic risk compared with general anaesthesia.
