The Best Vein Treatment in New York City
​
If you’re dealing with the discomfort and unsightly appearance of varicose and spider veins, you’re not alone. Millions of people in New York City and around the world are affected by these vein issues. Let’s explore the best vein treatments offered by New York Vein Treatment, a group of medical centers led by board-certified vein doctors.
Sclerotherapy
​
During sclerotherapy, a vein specialist uses a fine needle to inject the sclerosing solution into the targeted veins. This solution irritates the lining of the veins, causing them to constrict and collapse. Over time, the body naturally absorbs these treated veins, leading to a significant reduction in their visibility. Sclerotherapy is an outpatient procedure that is relatively quick and virtually painless, making it a preferred choice for many patients seeking to enhance the appearance of their legs and regain their confidence. The results are often visible within a few weeks, and patients can typically resume their normal activities shortly after treatment.
Benefits:
- Minimally invasive procedure with no surgical incisions.
- Rapid results, with veins gradually fading over a few weeks.
- Can be performed on an outpatient basis with little to no downtime.
- Highly recommended for cosmetic improvement.
Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA)
-
During an EVLA procedure, the patient is usually given a local anesthetic to ensure their comfort. A thin laser fiber is then inserted into the affected vein through a tiny incision. This fiber emits laser energy that heats and seals the problematic vein from the inside. As a result, the vein collapses and is gradually reabsorbed by the body over time. One of the key advantages of EVLA is its precision; it targets the underlying cause of the varicose veins, ensuring long-lasting relief and cosmetic improvement. The procedure typically takes less than an hour to complete, and patients can often return to their daily activities immediately.
Benefits:
- Minimally invasive treatment that eliminates the need for traditional surgery.
- High success rate in treating varicose veins at their source.
- Fast and efficient procedure typically performed in less than an hour.
- Minimal discomfort and rapid recovery, ensuring the rapid return to normal activities.
- Â
Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA)
​
During RFA, a board-certified vein doctor first administers local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. Next, a specialized catheter is inserted into the affected vein through a small incision. This catheter delivers radiofrequency energy, which generates heat and seals the problematic vein from the inside. As the vein is sealed, it collapses, and over time, the body naturally reabsorbs it. One of the key advantages is its precision in targeting the underlying cause of varicose veins, ensuring long-lasting relief from symptoms like leg pain and discomfort.
Benefits:
​
- Minimally invasive procedure with a high success rate.
- Virtually painless, with local anesthesia used to ensure comfort during the procedure.
- Quick recovery time, typically allowing patients to resume their daily activities immediately.
- Improved circulation and relief from symptoms like leg pain and swelling.
VenaSeal
​
-
VenaSeal works by using a medical-grade adhesive to seal the problematic vein shut. During the procedure, a board-certified vein doctor first administers a local anesthetic to ensure the patient’s comfort. A tiny catheter is then inserted into the affected vein through a small incision. Through this catheter, the medical adhesive is delivered directly into the vein, sealing it completely. The key advantage of VenaSeal lies in its precision – it targets the underlying cause of varicose veins, eliminating venous reflux, and providing long-lasting relief from symptoms like leg pain, swelling, and discomfort. Since there is no need for thermal energy, patients experience minimal to no discomfort during the procedure.
Benefits:
- Minimally invasive and virtually painless.
- Rapid procedure that can often be completed in under an hour.
- Minimal to no downtime, allowing you to return to your normal activities immediately.
- Highly recommended for its precision and effectiveness in treating varicose veins.
- Reduces the risks associated with thermal injury.
- No need to wear compression stockings after the procedure.
Ambulatory Phlebectomy
-
During an ambulatory phlebectomy, a board-certified vein doctor will mark the varicose veins that need to be removed. Then, tiny incisions, typically only a few millimeters in size, are made along the course of these veins. Specialized hooks or forceps are used to remove the targeted veins through these small incisions. It allows for the specific removal of superficial varicose veins while leaving surrounding tissues intact. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, which is performed under local anesthesia. The recovery period is relatively short, with most individuals able to return to their daily activities immediately.
Benefits:
- Minimally invasive procedure that leaves minimal scarring.
- Precise removal of superficial varicose veins for cosmetic improvement.
- Local anesthesia ensures patient comfort during the procedure.
- Short recovery time, allowing patients to return to their daily activities immediately.

What are the common signs and symptoms of vein issues?
Typical symptoms include leg pain, swelling, heaviness, cramping, itching, and the appearance of spider veins or varicose veins. If you experience any of these, consult a vein specialist.
Are all vein treatments minimally invasive?
No, not all vein treatments are minimally invasive. While procedures like sclerotherapy, endovenous laser ablation, radiofrequency ablation, and VenaSeal are minimally invasive, surgical methods are also available. However, our vein doctors only offer minimally invasive vein treatments because they’re safer, more effective, and more convenient.
How do I know which vein treatment is right for me?
The best treatment option depends on your specific condition, its severity, and your medical history. A board-certified vein doctor will conduct a thorough evaluation and recommend the most suitable treatment plan for you.

Is there any downtime after vein treatment?
Minimally invasive vein treatments typically involve minimal downtime. Patients can often return to their normal activities shortly after the procedure. However, strenuous workouts and heavy lifting should be avoided for a few days, and compression stockings may have to be worn for a few days or weeks to improve circulation.
Are the results of vein treatments permanent?
Vein treatments effectively address existing issues, but new vein problems can develop over time. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following your doctor’s recommendations can help prevent future vein issues.

Results from vein treatments may vary, but most patients start to see improvement within a few weeks to a couple of months, with optimal results achieved over time.
