Frequently asked question

With vein stripping, the physician makes an incision in your groin and ties off the vein, after which a tool is threaded through the leg vein in order to pull it out through a second incision just above the calf. The ClosureFast™ procedure is minimally invasive. In contrast to vein stripping, the vein is closed using heat delivered by a catheter inserted through a small incision below the knee. Vein stripping is usually performed in an operating room under general anesthesia, while the ClosureFast™ procedure is often performed in an outpatient setting, typically using local or sleep anesthesia.

The ClosureFast™ procedure utilizes radiofrequency energy in 20 second bursts to provide controlled heat to contract the collagen in the vein walls, causing them to collapse and seal. Once a leg vein is closed, blood flow is redirected to healthy veins. Laser ablation uses laser heat to contract and seal the affected vein. The laser delivers heat to the vein causing it to collapse. Unlike the ClosureFast™ procedure, peak laser temperatures can reach over 1334°F (729°C). Treatment with the 980 nm laser ablation can potentially lead to more bruising and post-procedure pain for patients than compared to the ClosureFast™ procedure.

The ClosureFast™ procedure typically takes approximately 45-60 minutes. Most patients typically spend two to three hours at Evita’s recovery room due to normal pre- and post-treatment procedures.
