Common Vein Treatments Are Equally Effective, Study Reports

RFA and EVLT are equally effective in treating varicose veins

A health agency recently discovered that common varicose vein treatments were equally effective in reducing symptoms, according to the Korea Biomedical Review.  

Researchers from the National Evidence-based Healthcare Collaborating Agency (NECA) compiled data from over 50 studies to review the effectiveness of ablation procedures like radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT). 

Here are some key findings from their research: 

Vein ablation procedures rarely caused serious complications.
Both treatments resulted in minimal downtime and faster recovery compared to surgery. 
Patients reported high satisfaction based on improvements in varicose vein symptoms and overall quality of life.  

USA Vein Clinics offers both RFA and EVLT in addition to sclerotherapy, VenaSeal™, ClariVein®, and Varithena® treatments, which can be personalized based on each patient’s condition to ensure effective, long-term relief.
