- UltrasoundDepending on the outcome of your initial evaluation, a duplex ultrasound scan may be necessary and a separate appointment will be scheduled. The ultrasound provides a visual window, revealing the diseased, refluxing veins beneath the skin’s surface. The diagnostic information from the ultrasound can help us pinpoint the exact cause of your varicose veins and enable us to customize a treatment plan for your individual needs. The scan may be a covered benefit through your health insurance plan, and we encourage you to check with your plan provider before having the test.

There may be moderate redness and swelling immediately after the procedure and patients must stay out of the sun for four weeks prior to and after each treatment.
