Varithena™

Varithena is an FDA-approved, minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins caused by problems with the great saphenous vein and its branches. It uses a specially formulated microfoam that is injected into the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut.

Once treated, blood is naturally rerouted to healthier veins, improving circulation and reducing symptoms.

Is Varithena Commonly Used?

Yes. Varithena is widely used as a safe and effective treatment option for varicose veins, particularly for patients who prefer a non-surgical approach.

Varicose Veins. Endovenous foam Treatment. When injected inside a vein, the micro foam displaces the blood creating better contact with the vein wall. Sclerosant seals off the varicose veins.

How Will I Know if I Need Varithena?

You may be a good candidate for Varithena if you have:
  • Bulging or twisted varicose veins
  • Aching, throbbing, or heaviness in your legs
  • Leg swelling
  • Skin changes or irritation caused by poor circulation

Your provider will perform an exam and possibly an ultrasound to determine whether Varithena is the best treatment for you.

How does Varithena Work?

Varithena is a quick, in-office treatment that requires no surgery or general anesthesia. Treatment typically involves:

Step 1

A small needle injection of Varithena foam into the targeted vein

Step 2

The foam displaces blood and collapses the vein wall

Step 3

The body gradually absorbs the sealed vein while blood reroutes through healthy vessels

Most patients experience relief of symptoms and cosmetic improvement within a few weeks.

Which Treatment Option is Best for You?

Treatments such as radiofrequency ablation, VenaSeal, Varathena, or Sclerotherapy can close off damaged veins and redirect blood to healthier veins.

Surgical Options 

In more severe cases, ambulatory phlebectomies or other surgical procedures may be recommended.
