The ClariVein Process
What to Expect?
Consultation
ClariVein is only one of the options we have at Lumina Vein & Aesthetic Institute for treating varicose veins in Windermere. Before receiving your treatment you'll sit down for an in-depth consultation with one of our experienced providers. We'll discuss your medical history, your desired results, and any concerns you have. After we've answered all your questions and explained how ClariVein works, we'll schedule your appointment.
Treatment
ClariVein in Windermere is performed in our office. Your provider will use a small needle to insert the catheter into the vein being treated. The catheter has a rotating tip that will deliver medicine and induce the vein to collapse. Afterwards, your body redirects blood flow to the stronger, healthier vessels and absorbs the collapsed vein as fibrous tissue. The whole treatment will only take about 30 minutes!
Next Steps
Recovery with ClariVein is very easy, and you can return to your normal activities immediately. You should plan to wear a compression stocking for up to 2 weeks after your treatment, or as advised by your provider.
