Chronic or Acute Venous Insufficiency Treatments with Laser Therapy
Treatments for Chronic or Acute Venous Insufficiency with Dr. Taghizadeh, Board-Certified Cardiologist
Venous insufficiency, whether chronic or acute, is a condition where the veins in your legs struggle to return blood to your heart. This can result in symptoms such as leg pain, swelling, skin discoloration, and in severe cases, the development of ulcers. If left untreated, venous insufficiency can significantly affect your quality of life. Fortunately, modern treatment options are available at San Diego Cardiac, Vein & Laser Treatment Center, under the expert care of Dr. Taghizadeh, a Board-Certified Cardiologist.
Laser Treatment for Venous Insufficiency
Endovenous laser therapy (EVLT) is a minimally invasive procedure that uses laser energy to close off malfunctioning veins. By sealing the problematic vein, blood is redirected through healthier veins, providing relief. This is an ideal option for patients seeking fast recovery with minimal discomfort. Performed in-office in less than an hour, EVLT offers long-lasting relief from symptoms like swelling and leg pain.
Phlebectomy for Vein Removal
Phlebectomy is another highly effective treatment for both chronic and acute venous insufficiency. This procedure involves removing varicose veins through small punctures in the skin, which heal quickly with minimal scarring. It’s especially useful for veins that are too large or twisted to treat with laser alone. Dr. Taghizadeh tailors each treatment to ensure both cosmetic and medical success.
Varithena for Non-Surgical Treatment
For those seeking a non-surgical option, Varithena®️ is an FDA-approved foam injected directly into the affected vein to collapse it. This approach is ideal for treating both large and small varicose veins. Varithena is quick and minimally invasive, with most patients able to resume normal activities the same day.
