Vein Care – Orbis Vascular

Vein Care for Varicose & Spider Veins

Varicose veins and spider veins are often caused by valves inside the veins that no longer close properly, allowing blood to pool and veins to stretch. This can lead to leg heaviness, aching, swelling, and visible bulging veins. At Orbis Vascular, we offer modern, minimally invasive treatments that close unhealthy veins and redirect blood flow into healthier ones.

Most procedures are performed in an outpatient setting, with local anesthesia and same-day recovery, so you can return to normal activities quickly.

Thermal Ablation

Ablations for Varicose Veins

Thermal ablation is a minimally invasive treatment for larger, diseased veins just beneath the skin. Using ultrasound guidance, a small catheter is placed inside the faulty vein. Heat energy—delivered by radiofrequency (RF) or laser—is then applied along the inside of the vein wall, causing it to gently close.

Once the vein is sealed, blood naturally reroutes to nearby healthy veins. Over time, the treated vein shrinks and is absorbed by the body, helping to reduce bulging, discomfort, and heaviness in the leg.

  • Small catheter-based procedure with local anesthesia
  • Closes problematic veins from the inside without large incisions
  • Often completed in under an hour with same-day recovery
  • Improves symptoms such as aching, throbbing, and leg fatigue
Foam Treatment

Varithena® Ablation

Varithena® is a prescription, foam-based medication used to treat certain varicose veins in the legs. The foam is injected directly into the diseased vein under ultrasound guidance, where it displaces blood and causes the vein wall to collapse and seal shut.

This technique is especially useful for veins that are twisted or difficult to treat with a straight catheter. As with other ablation treatments, blood flow is redirected to healthier veins, improving circulation and leg appearance.

  • Non-surgical, injectable foam treatment for varicose veins
  • Ideal for veins that are tortuous or hard to reach with standard catheters
  • Office-based procedure with little downtime
  • Helps reduce pain, swelling, and visible bulging veins
Surface Vein Therapy

Sclerotherapy and VenaSeal™

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment in which a special solution (sclerosant) is injected into small varicose veins and spider veins. The medication irritates the inner lining of the vein, causing it to close and fade over time. It is highly effective for visible surface veins that do not require catheter-based ablation.

VenaSeal™ is a medical adhesive system used to close larger, diseased veins by delivering a small amount of glue through a thin catheter. The adhesive seals the vein without the need for heat, tumescent anesthesia, or compression stocking use in many cases.

  • Sclerotherapy targets small varicose veins and spider veins
  • VenaSeal™ uses a medical adhesive to seal larger problem veins
  • Both procedures are performed through tiny needle sticks or catheters
  • Designed to improve both symptoms and cosmetic appearance
