VeinGoghtm Thermocoagulation of Spider Veins
Thermocoagulation of spider veins is a newer, minimally invasive technique to treat spider veins using a tiny needle that pierces the skin surface and uses radiofrequency energy to heat and destroy the damaged veins.
Thermocoagulation works best on small spider veins and sclerotherapy may still be required to treat underlying feeder veins.
The benefits are that it is a relatively painless procedure that provides instant results without the need for compression and without the risks of skin pigmentation. Compared to sclerotherapy, results are more predictable and fewer treatment sessions are required with VeinGogh to achieve the desired result.
