Healing damaged veins through radiofrequency energy treatment. 

Are you living with varicose veins or another vein condition that causes symptoms like itching, dry skin, or unrelenting pain? If so, you’re not alone, and state-of-the-art outpatient treatment options like radiofrequency vein ablation can help.

Varicose veins are one of the most common venous conditions, and nearly 23% of U.S. adults will have them in their lifetime.

They can affect your self-esteem and physical well-being, especially if you experience chronic or life-changing symptoms that worsen during physical activity or everyday tasks.

Varicose veins are caused by venous insufficiency (e.g., abnormal vein function) and should be treated promptly to avoid worsening symptoms or long-term complications.

At Texas Endovascular, we understand how varicose veins and other vascular conditions affect your overall health.

Let’s discuss radiofrequency vein ablation in more detail, including what it is, how it’s performed, and what you can expect after treatment. 

What is Radiofrequency Vein Ablation?

Radiofrequency vein ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive outpatient vascular procedure.

During RFA, a catheter is inserted into an abnormal vein, supplying it with heat energy, which closes it permanently.

RFA only requires a local anesthetic and leaves virtually no scar.

Patients generally experience little to no pain or downtime. They may also experience relief from their symptoms right away.

The procedure takes less than an hour, and most patients can resume normal activities immediately afterward.

Before performing a radiofrequency ablation, your doctor will perform a thorough medical examination, including a diagnostic ultrasound evaluation, to determine whether the procedure is appropriate for your unique situation.

Although primarily used for venous disorders, RFA has also been used to treat tumors, nodules, or other growths throughout the body.
