VenaSeal / Glue Ablation: A Revolutionary Treatment for Varicose Veins at Go Vascular
At Go Vascular, VenaSeal, also known as Glue Ablation, is an innovative, minimally invasive procedure for treating varicose veins. This advanced technique uses a specially formulated medical adhesive to seal the diseased veins, rerouting blood flow to healthy veins. VenaSeal offers a quick, virtually painless solution without the need for heat or multiple injections.
How Does VenaSeal / Glue Ablation Work?
The specialists at Go Vascular perform the procedure by inserting a small catheter into the affected vein. Through the catheter, the medical-grade adhesive is delivered, causing the vein walls to stick together and close. Over time, the closed vein is naturally absorbed by the body. VenaSeal eliminates the need for thermal energy or tumescent anesthesia, making it a comfortable and convenient option.
