Endovenous Laser and Radio Frequency in Corpus Christi, TX
Endovenous Laser and Radio Frequency
Endovenous Laser and Radio Frequency is a minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. This procedure involves using laser or radiofrequency energy to heat and seal off the affected veins, rerouting blood flow to healthier veins. Common treatment areas include the legs, where varicose veins are most prevalent. The treatment is done through small incisions, allowing the heat to close the problematic veins, which the body absorbs over time.
This treatment is ideal for individuals who experience discomfort or cosmetic concerns related to varicose veins. Most patients see improvements within a few weeks, with full results typically visible after a few months. The effects are long-lasting, but maintenance may be needed over time.
