Conditions Treated
Varithena® is primarily used to treat conditions related to vein irregularities. It can effectively address:
Procedure Overview
-
Consultation and assessment
During your consultation, Dr. Tawfik will evaluate your condition and discuss your medical history. This assessment helps determine if Varithena® is the right treatment for your condition.
-
Foam injection
The Varithena® procedure involves injecting a specialized foam into the affected veins. This foam contains a drug called polidocanol, which is a sclerosant. Polidocanol works by irritating the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to close off.
-
Vein closure
As the foam irritates the blood vessels, they will collapse and close off. Over time, the treated vein is reabsorbed by the body, improving blood flow and diminishing the appearance of unsightly veins and any associated symptoms.
FAQ
Patients will experience minimal discomfort. Dr. Tawfik uses a local anesthetic to numb the injection site, enhancing your comfort during the procedure.
The Varithena® procedure typically takes around 20-30 minutes. The exact duration of treatment can vary based on the extent of the veins being treated. The number of treatments needed can vary based on the severity of your condition and how your body responds. Some patients may see significant improvement after just one treatment, while others may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results.
Some common side effects of Varithena® may include mild bruising, swelling, or pain at the injection site. These effects usually resolve within a few days to a few weeks.
