Vein Treatments
Vein treatments are designed to restore healthy blood flow, relieve symptoms like leg pain and swelling, and prevent complications from vein disease. At United Vein & Vascular Centers, we specialize in minimally invasive vein procedures that treat conditions such as varicose veins, chronic venous insufficiency, and venous reflux, often without surgery or hospital stays.
Common Vein Treatment Options
Modern vein treatments are performed using image guidance and tiny catheters or injections. Most procedures are done in-office and require little downtime. Click on any of the treatment options below to learn more.

VenaSeal for Venous Insufficiency
This cutting-edge, minimally invasive vein treatment for venous insufficiency, is designed to close problematic veins and reroute blood flow to healthy ones by using a medical-grade adhesive to seal veins shut.
Varithena for Varicose Veins
This FDA-approved, minimally invasive vein treatment uses a specialized microfoam to close diseased veins and reroute blood flow.
Sclerotherapy for Deep Vein Treatment
Sclerotherapy is a safe and effective vein treatment that combines ultrasound with precise injections to treat deep varicose veins. All 50+ United Vein and Vascular Centers offer sclerotherapy as a vein treatment option.
Phlebectomy for Vein Removal
Also known as a “stab” or “ambulatory” phlebectomy, a microphlebectomy is a minimally invasive procedure that involves a UVVC vein specialist making a tiny puncture and extracting the damaged vessel. A quick outpatient procedure to get rid of troublesome veins.
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for Bulging Varicose Veins
This modern varicose vein treatment uses a thin catheter to deliver radiofrequency energy to a damaged vein, sealing it shut. This is a convenient vein treatment option available at all 50+ United Vein and Vascular Centers.
