ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY
The ClosureFast™ and Venaseal® procedures utilize the latest techniques to effectively treat patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency (CVI).
VENASEAL®
The VenaSeal® Sapheon Closure System eliminates superficial varicose veins that cause these symptoms. To use the system, our trained vein care professional inserts a catheter directly into the diseased vein and injects the VenaSeal® adhesive, which is a clear gel that polymerizes into a solid substance. Ultrasound imaging is used to ensure proper placement of the catheter and gel. When the vein is sealed shut, blood is naturally rerouted by the body through healthier veins in the area. With this new system, there is no need for sclerosants, lasers, radio frequency waves, skin cutting or “vein stripping.” This allows patients to return to their usual activities quickly, with less bruising, and with a reduced risk of nerve injury as can sometimes occur with heat-based procedures. Some side effects may occur, such as tingling or vein inflammation (phlebitis), as occur with most vein treatment procedures. The FDA reviewed the safety and efficacy data on the VenaSeal® system and found it to be safe and effective for the treatment of superficial varicose veins of the legs.

CLOSUREFAST™ PROCEDURE
The ClosureFast™ procedure uses radiofrequency energy to precisely and effectively treat patients suffering from chronic venous insufficiency (CVI). The vein is accessed percutaneously through a small incision in the ankle. A catheter is introduced into the vein through this small incision. The catheter delivers radiofrequency energy to the vein wall, causing it to heat, collapse and seal shut. Once the diseased vein is closed, other healthy veins take over and empty blood from your legs. As normal return flow is reestablished, your symptoms should improve considerably.
