Minimally Invasive Treatment

Dr. Lutz's comprehensive, minimally invasive approach includes ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy, as well as endovenous laser treatment (ELT). Neither option requires hospitalization or surgery. Instead, each is performed in the physician's office. You can be back on your feet resuming normal activities the same day.

Experience Matters

For over 25 years, Vein Clinics of America (VCA) has specialized in all aspects of varicose vein disease, including varicose veins, spider veins and leg ulcers. Prior to coming to VCA, he was a cardiovascular hospitalist at the Cleveland Clinic. Dr. Lutz is supported by an exceptional clinical and administrative team dedicated exclusively to the treatment of chronic venous disorders.

Procedures & Services

Services:

Sclerotherapy is a microinjection procedure that needs no pain medication or surgery. Abnormal veins are treated by injecting a solution called a sclerosant, sealing the vein off from the rest of the vein network in your leg, allowing the body to naturally redirect the blood flow to healthy veins.

Endovenous laser treatment (ELT, or sometimes referred to as EVLT) is a quick, minimally invasive laser treatment that requires no hospitalization and no complicated surgery. A small optic fiber is inserted through a needle into the varicose vein, heating and closing the vein, allowing blood to be naturally re-routed to other healthy veins.
