At DeKalb Vein Center, we offer the latest in minimally invasive venous disease treatments, including the VNUS Closure™ procedure and sclerotherapy.

The VNUS Closure vein procedure was developed over a four year period to treat superficial venous reflux. There are no stitches and the patient returns to normal activity within a day or two. In fact, walking is encouraged immediately.

Spider veins are small, thin veins which commonly appear on the face and legs. Sclerotherapy is the injection of chemicals into these diseased veins to effectively glue the veins shut. It can be performed safely with little discomfort. Depending on the patient’s condition and desired results, between two and six sclerotherapy sessions (each typically lasting less than 30 minutes) are needed to achieve perfect results.
