VenaSeal is a safe and minimally invasive procedure used to treat veins. One of the main advantages of VenaSeal compared to other vein treatments is that minimal pain is involved if any at all. VenaSeal uses a medical glue called cyanoacrylate to counter vein production. In the sealing process, cyanoacrylate is applied to the main saphenous vein in the thigh, sealing the vein shut. To better understand the process of VenaSeal, it is important to know more about cyanoacrylates.
Since the 1950s, cyanoacrylates have been used to treat wounds and cuts. They are especially useful in the case of emergencies and treating children. Cyanoacrylates are used in many fields by dental hygienists, ophthalmic surgeons, orthopedists, vascular surgeons, and vein specialists. They are also used for cosmetic treatments. Cyanoacrylates are strong and fast-acting, great for outpatients who want a simple and pain-free vein removal experience.
Now that you know about cyanoacrylates, you can better understand the VenaSeal process. This strong adhesive medical paste is applied to a catheter. This causes the vein to close and the blood from it is redirected to healthy veins nearby. After the vein is closed, a hardening process begins. The vein eventually transforms into scar tissue as the blood for the former vein deteriorates.
VenaSeal does not pose a risk of nerve damage. VenaSeal is considered by many medical experts to be the safest and simplest form of vein treatment. It is minimally invasive and doesn’t require a post-treatment plan. If compression stockings bring you discomfort, you should consider VenaSeal.
VenaSeal has proven to be both safe and highly effective by medical studies. Compared to other procedures that treat smaller veins, the risk of nerve damage from the VenaSeal procedure is greatly reduced. VenaSealis just as safe and effective as other minimally invasive treatments such as endovenous thermal ablation and sclerotherapy.
Another benefit of VenaSeal is that it requires just one need prick whereas other treatments require multiple pricks. VenaSeal is great for removing veins that are close to the skin. It doesn’t require you to have any post-procedure operations such as compression stockings or other similar plans that may result in pain or difficulties.
This process is quick and easy, so you won’t need to spend anytime away from home, miss work, or stop the activities you love. Your daily life will be improved by eliminating the discomfort and unwanted appearance of varicose veins.
