CLOSUREFAST PROCEDURE
THERMAL VEIN CLOSURE
The ClosureFast™ procedure uses radiofrequency energy or heat to close the diseased vein, which redirects blood flow to healthy veins, relieving symptoms.
THERMAL VEIN CLOSURE
- Minimally invasive outpatient procedure
- Local anesthesia along various points of the leg
- Less pain and bruising than laser treatment1
- Faster recovery time than laser treatment1
- Compression stockings needed for at least one week after procedure2
Over 2 million patients have been treated with the ClosureFast procedure in over 100 countries around the world.
HOW IT WORKS
The ClosureFast procedure is performed on an outpatient basis.
- Using ultrasound, your physician will position the catheter into the diseased vein through a small opening in the skin.
- The small catheter delivers heat to the vein wall, causing it to shrink and the vein to seal closed.
- Once the diseased vein is closed, blood will reroute itself to other healthy veins.
