The VeinWave treatment is a gentle and effective treatment for these tiny, visible veins that involves minimal discomfort and no recovery time. This treatment uses a special thermocoagulation technology to close up these veins and to allow them to disappear. An ultra-thin, insulated needle is inserted into each of the veins and emits radiofrequency energy (heat) into the wall of the vein. This heat causes each vein to close and then it is absorbed by the body. Typical VeinWave treatments last around 20 minutes and are performed in the physician’s office. Patients typically require one-to-two treatments. With this being said, the number of treatments and the timing of these treatments will be determined during your consultation and will vary according to your own personal needs. With the treatment times being so short, many patients find it convenient to have the procedure performed on their lunch break or even on their way home from work before a busy evening begins.
