Endovenous Medical Adhesive Procedure – VenaSealMC
Non-surgical, no anesthesia, no heat
This endovenous procedure involves sealing varicose vein walls using a medical adhesive. It represents a major breakthrough in treating varicose veins and venous insufficiency—without surgery. Offered at Medicart Ottawa Vein & Aesthetics, this cutting-edge technology provides an effective solution for eliminating larger varicose veins.
Improve Your Quality of Life
With VenaSealMC
If you suffer from varicose veins and are looking to improve your comfort and quality of life, the VenaSealMC treatment could be the ideal solution. It is especially well-suited for patients whose veins are too large or under too much pressure for other techniques. Using a medical adhesive, the procedure closes diseased veins and redirects blood flow to healthy veins. Guided by ultrasound, the treatment ensures maximum precision for optimal results.
One of the main advantages of the VenaSealMC procedure is its non-invasive nature. Unlike traditional treatments that use heat (such as endovenous laser or radiofrequency), this procedure causes no pain or discomfort from intense heat. It also does not require extensive local tumescent anesthesia. Additionally, patients can resume their daily activities as early as the next day, with minimal recovery time. While recommended, compression stockings are not necessary after the procedure, making the process even more convenient.
Beyond improving the appearance of your legs, the VenaSealMC procedure relieves symptoms associated with varicose veins, such as pain, swelling, and the feeling of heavy legs. Thanks to this advanced technology and precise diagnostics, VenaSealMC offers comprehensive care, allowing patients to regain comfort and confidence quickly.
