Minimally Invasive Treatment
Dr. Aleman's comprehensive, minimally invasive approach includes ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy, as well as enovenous 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.
Dr. Aleman is also now offering Veinwave™, an exciting new treatment for spider and fine thread veins of the legs and face. The introduction of our latest offering reflects our ongoing commitment to bringing our patients new and effective, minimally invasive treatment options.
Experience Matters
Prior to joining VCA, Dr. Aleman practiced emergency medicine in the Atlanta area at Gwinnett Medical Center, Northside Hospital and DeKalb Medical Center. He also practiced emergency medicine in Cincinnati, Ohio. He is supported by an exceptional clinical and administrative team dedicated exclusively to the treatment of chronic venous disorders.
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.
