In the past, patients with varicose veins had to experience painful vein stripping surgery performed in a hospital setting with long recovery times. Today, patients have much better, convenient options to treat venous reflux disease. Dr. Haney has performed procedures to treat varicose veins in his office with excellent results and little or no pain.
VNUS Closure Procedure
This simple, non-invasive procedure is peformed at our office. Using ultrasound, Dr. Haney will make a tiny incision to insert the closure catheter into the diseased vein. The tiny catheter is powered by radio-frequency (RF) energy and delivers heat to the vein wall. As the thermal energy is delivered, the vein wall shrinks and the vein is sealed close. Once the diseased vein is closed, blood is rerouted to other health veins.
Following the procedure, a simple bandage is placed over the insertion site and additional compression will be provided to aid healing. Patients who undergo the Closure procedure typically resume normal activity within a day. The Closure procedure results in good cosmetic outcome with minimal to no scarring, bruising or swelling.

Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy
This procedure is used to treat internal varicose veins that are not visable on the skin's surface. Medication is injected into the veins using an ultrasound to guide the placement. The medication closes the vein. This procedure is done in the offic, requires no anesthesia or sedation, and you can return to work immediately.
Compression Stockings
The most conservative option for varicose veins is wearing prescription strength compression stockings. Compression stockings may lessen the symptoms but do not treat the cause of venous reflux disease. The stockings must be worn on a daily basis. Many insurance plans require a trial of compression stockings for several months before considering covering treatment.
