Varicose and spider veins are common conditions that can cause pain, discomfort, and cosmetic concerns. Seeking out a specialized Vein Doctor is the first step towards effective treatment and improved quality of life. At NYU Langone’s Vein Center, expert vascular surgeons offer a comprehensive range of minimally invasive procedures to address these issues, along with more complex deep venous conditions like May–Thurner syndrome, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), venous ulcers, and pelvic congestion syndrome. Our primary goal is to enhance your well-being and achieve the best possible cosmetic results.
Comprehensive Varicose and Spider Vein Treatments
When it comes to treating varicose and spider veins, our vein center provides a full spectrum of advanced options. These include thermal ablation, utilizing both radiofrequency and laser energy to gently collapse the affected vein. This minimally invasive technique effectively stops blood flow and reduces the appearance of varicose veins.
Another innovative approach is nonthermal ablation, which employs specialized medical glue and foam to achieve the same goal of halting blood flow within the problematic vein. For certain varicose veins, microphlebectomy is an excellent choice. This procedure involves making very small incisions to physically remove the varicose veins, leading to immediate cosmetic improvement.
To address any lingering spider veins after initial varicose vein treatment, we offer sclerotherapy. This involves injecting a tiny amount of a specialized solution into the remaining spider veins. This solution causes the veins to collapse and be naturally reabsorbed by the body, further enhancing the appearance of your legs.
Advanced Treatment for Deep Venous Conditions
Our dedicated Outpatient Vascular Surgery Center is equipped to handle procedures for deep venous conditions with the most sophisticated diagnostic and treatment technologies. Our vein doctors utilize intravascular ultrasound, a technique that uses sound waves to create detailed images of your veins, ensuring accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. We also offer balloon angioplasty and stenting to open up veins that have become compressed or narrowed, restoring proper blood flow.
These advanced treatments are performed using only mild sedation, allowing for a quick recovery and a rapid return to your daily routine. Our internationally recognized surgeons are not only leaders in patient care but are also actively involved in research and education, ensuring you receive the most current and effective treatments available. We are committed to participating in national clinical trials, constantly seeking new and improved therapies for venous conditions.
Our commitment at NYU Langone’s Vein Center is to make you feel better, improve your overall quality of life, and help you look your best. If you are seeking a qualified vein doctor for varicose veins, spider veins, or deep venous issues, our team is here to provide expert care and personalized treatment plans.
