Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive, ultrasound-guided procedure used to treat superficial venous reflux, a condition that can lead to varicose veins. The procedure uses radiofrequency energy to heat and seal off the affected veins, improving blood flow by redirecting blood to healthier veins. At Revere Health, we offer RFA as a safe and effective option for relieving symptoms like leg pain, swelling, and the appearance of varicose veins.
How Radiofrequency Ablation Works
Ultrasound Guidance: The procedure is performed under ultrasound guidance to precisely target the affected veins.
Radiofrequency Energy: A thin catheter is inserted into the vein, and radiofrequency energy is applied, causing the vein walls to collapse and seal shut.
Blood Flow Rerouting: Blood is naturally redirected to healthier veins, improving circulation and reducing varicose vein symptoms.
Benefits of Radiofrequency Ablation
Minimally Invasive: Performed through small incisions with little downtime.
Quick Recovery: Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after the procedure.
Symptom Relief: Reduces pain, swelling, and discomfort caused by venous reflux.
Cosmetic Improvement: Effectively treats varicose veins, improving the appearance of the legs.
