VARITHENA TREATMENT


What are varicose veins and What Causes Varicose Veins?

Varicose veins are enlarged, often bluish, twisting leg veins that bulge above the surface of the skin. It is a common condition affecting many men and women, and is caused by increased blood pressure in the veins. Any vein that is close to the skin’s surface can become Varicose. The blood moves towards the heart by one -way valves in the veins. When the valves become weakened, faulty or damaged in the veins, that causes blood to flow in the wrong direction or to pool.

A Quick, Nearly Painless Procedure

Varicose vein treatment involves injecting a foam that causes veins to close. Varithena is minimally invasive, and patients reporting pain at the injection or application site in clinical trials was 4.0%.1 There’s no need for incisions or stitches, and treatment is usually less than an hour. Most people only need a single treatment to see results.

What Treatment Is Like

Unlike some other foams, Varithena is FDA-approved. During a treatment session, a physician injects the foam inside diseased veins to close them down, allowing blood to flow through other, healthier veins.
