Venous procedures
Compression therapy and minimally invasive vein closure to heal and prevent venous ulcers.
What it is
Compression wraps or stockings reduce swelling and pressure. If ultrasound shows faulty veins, they can be closed with heat (ablation) or medical adhesive through a small needle puncture, lowering the chance of ulcers returning.
What to expect
- Duplex ultrasound to map your veins
- In-office procedure, walk out the same day
- Continued compression afterward
