VNUS Closure Fast Competes with Sclerotherapy

One of the most well-known methods of treating problem veins such as varicose veins is to use sclerotherapy. This is a non-invasive injection which shrinks the veins and reduces their appearance while minimizing other problems that the veins may cause (such as leg pain). However, this tried-and-true method of treating varicose veins is getting some competition in the modern medical market. A new procedure, VNUS Closure Fast, is rapidly becoming the preferred treatment method by both doctors and patients concerned about varicose veins.

The main reason that the VNUS Closure Fast is gaining popularity so quickly is because of how rapidly it works. "Fast" is in the name of this product because it's quick at what it does. And what is that? It uses heat to seal off the varicose veins. The veins seal off and the effect is similar to that achieved by sclerotherapy. However, the time that it takes to perform the procedure is significantly reduced in comparison with the older method of treatment.

In addition to rapidly replacing sclerotherapy, VNUS Closure Fast provides an excellent alternative to other methods of vein treatment which are far more invasive. For example, stripping of the vein may not be necessary for most people if they can instead make use of the newer technologies to remove the veins.

VNUS Closure Fast is a great new technology but it might not be the right choice for everyone. You should find a doctor who is knowledgeable about both the new and old procedures. Then you can work together with your doctor to identify the proper treatment for your own varicose veins.

Question of the Day: Are you more likely to prefer a newer treatment or a more established one for treating problems such as varicose veins?
