Veinwave

What Is It?
The Veinwave™ works by utilizing the process of thermo-coagulation. The energy created by the high frequency current produces a thermal lesion and immediate disappearance of the vein while preserving the epidermis.

Your Experience
The treatment last approximately 20 minutes depending on the area treated. There is usually minimal or no discomfort during the treatment. The device uses a fine needle which is placed on the skin above the vein to allow accurate application whilst protecting the surrounding skin and tissue. After a treatment the treated veins may appear reddened, raised and more prominent than before the treatment. Micro-crusting may develop on the area that has been treated. Occasionally there is a slight increase in colour at the treated site. You can resume immediately to your usual activities following this treatment.

The Future
The number of treatments required will depend on the extent of the affected areas and will be estimated at your consultation. Treatments are usually planned at 3 - 6 weeks intervals. Not all thread veins will respond to veinwave therapy. On the legs some veins may be too large and Sclerotherapy may be more effective.

Side Effects
There is no evidence of complications after Veinwave treatment; however treatment is not suitable during pregnancy or for patients with epilepsy or a pacemaker.
