No Surgery & Quick Recovery
as the affected veins are treated by inserting a catheter through a tiny incision in the lower leg, there is no need for surgery, general anesthesia, or lengthy periods of recovery.
Equipped with a state-of-the-art outpatient facility, our board certified vascular and general surgeons are able to effectively treat patients suffering from the discomfort and embarrassment caused by varicose veins using the Venefit™ procedure (formerly known as VNUS Closure), a high-tech, innovative treatment for varicose veins and Chronic Venous Insufficiency (CVI).
The Venefit™ procedure is a minimally invasive treatment that uses radiofrequency energy to target, collapse, and eliminate enlarged and unsightly varicose veins. The procedure results in less, pain, less bruising, and less scarring than traditional vein stripping surgery and patients are able to recover rapidly.
The Venefit™ procedure offers patients a number of benefits in comparison to traditional surgical options.
as the affected veins are treated by inserting a catheter through a tiny incision in the lower leg, there is no need for surgery, general anesthesia, or lengthy periods of recovery.
the catheter is then used to treat 7 cm segments of the vein using 20-second bursts of radiofrequency energy, which causes the vessel to shrink around the catheter. As the catheter is withdrawn to treat each new segment of the vein, the vessel will be sealed shut and blood will naturally reroute to healthy veins.
any unsightly or protruding appearance of the varicose vein on the skin will dissipate.
We perform the Venefit™ procedure in our outpatient facility and allow patients to leave and resume normal daily activities usually the very same day. Our patients experience minimal, if any, pain, and fast recoveries. They also experience incredible results that improve the look of their legs and their vascular health.
According to several clinical studies, the Venefit™ procedure has shown an amazingly high effectiveness rate when treating patients suffering from varicose veins.
Although the Venefit™ procedure has been proven to rejuvenate the appearance of skin by eliminating enlarged varicose veins, this treatment provides far more than aesthetic benefits alone. Used to address poor vascular health and vein disease, the Venefit™ procedure can be an essential treatment patients can use to reduce their risks of suffering more serious medical conditions, including life-threatening conditions such as deep vein thrombosis.
At SDVC, our San Diego vascular surgeons strive to meet the unique needs and desires of our patients and to deliver results that provide optimal cosmetic and health benefits.
