Aakash Healthcare

is the top varicose veins treatment hospital in India. We have the first-ever Vein Clinic in North India, with advanced technology and a minimally invasive approach.

Varicose veins are swollen, twisted blood vessels that usually affect the legs. These bluish or purple veins bulge under the skin's surface and cause pain, swelling, itching or even skin changes, such as eczema or ulcer in advanced stages.

Common varicose veins causes include a long-standing or walking job profile, family history, excess body weight, pregnancy and weak veins. These factors cause the blood to pool in the veins of the legs instead of flowing towards the heart. This makes the veins enlarge, bulge and twist.

  • Bulging, bluish veins
  • Itching or burning discomfort around the veins
  • Change in skin colour around the veins
  • Aching pain and swelling in the legs
  • Heaviness in the legs and feet
  • Night time leg cramps

The VenaSeal Closure System is a new, safe and innovative technique for varicose veins leg treatment. Varicose veins in pregnancy treatment can also be done safely by VenaSeal. It uses a minimally invasive approach where only one prick per vein is needed to seal the damaged veins through a medical glue. Thereby, redirecting the blood to healthy veins. With time, the body absorbs the damaged veins and they’ll disappear.

Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is also the latest technique for varicose veins treatment in India. The procedure uses controlled heat to close the faulty veins. It has long-term clinical data showing safety and efficacy for venous reflux treatment.

Offering Comprehensive Treatment Options

Magic in the VenaSeal Procedure

VenaSeal treatment for varicose veins is a simple and pain-free procedure. It hardly takes 20 minutes and you are all set to live a normal life again.

Step 1 - Placing the catheter:

A small catheter (a tube) is placed into the diseased vein through a small needle prick guided by ultrasound. You may feel no to minor stinging or pressure during this process.

Step 2 - Placing VenaSeal glue:

A small amount of specialised medical glue is delivered into the diseased vein through the catheter. This step is painless for most patients as it doesn’t use any heat or laser, which is a part of other treatment options.

Step 3 - Light external pressure:

The doctor applies a light external pressure to adhere the vein walls together.

Step 4 - Removal of catheter:

Once the veins are adhered together, the doctor gently removes the catheter and applies a bandage on the access site.

Advantages of VenaSeal treatment for varicose veins

  • Just one needle prick

Unlike other options which need multiple pricks, VenaSeal treatment requires just one prick per vein.

  • No pain during & after procedure

VenaSeal glue therapy uses a highly precise, least invasive approach and medical glue, resulting in no pain and discomfort.

  • No need for varicose veins stockings/socks

Since it uses VenaSeal glue to adhere the veins together, there is no need for extra healing. Thus, eliminating the need for stockings or socks.

  • Instant recovery

You can immediately walk and return to your normal activities after the procedure.

VenaSeal complications / disadvantages

Before the procedure, your doctor will discuss the VenaSeal pros and cons. Rarely, patients complain of inflammation and allergic reactions, which subside in few days without or with minimal treatment. The risk of these complications can be mitigated by choosing a certified varicose veins doctor.

The Power of Radiofrequency Ablation

Radiofrequency ablation delivers uniform heat for lasting vein closure. It’s also a simple procedure that causes negligible or no pain and bruising.

Step 1: A disposable catheter is placed into the faulty vein.

Step 2: The catheter delivers controlled heat to collapse the faulty vein.

Step 3: The catheter is removed from the vein, and a bandage is placed at the access site.

Advantages of Radiofrequency Ablation Treatment for Varicose Veins

  • Just one needle prick

Like VenaSeal, Radiofrequency Ablation also uses one prick per vein.

  • No pain during & after the procedure

RFA is performed under mild sedation/nerve blocks. That means you will not have pain during the procedure.

  • Faster recovery

The results are better and faster than vein stripping and laser treatment.

  • Cheaper than VenaSeal

Radiofrequency ablation is almost half the cost of the VenaSeal procedure.

Radiofrequency Ablation Complications/Disadvantages

RFA usually doesn’t cause any side effects, allergies, or complications. However, you can expect a little pain or bruising for a few days after the procedure. You will also need to wear compression stockings for a few days.

VenaSeal has 98.9% Success rate as per VeClose Study.
Radiofrequency Ablation has a 91.9% closure rate at 5 years.

Laser Treatment

Aakash Healthcare is one of the best laser treatment hospitals in India for varicose veins. This option uses a thin beam of radiation in the form of light to shrink and seal off affected veins.

Minimally Invasive Sclerotherapy

We offer one of the best varicose vein treatments in Delhi. Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment that uses a needle to inject a special solution into the affected veins to close them.
