At Heart Vascular and Leg Center, we provide Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy, a safe, non-surgical treatment designed to eliminate varicose veins and relieve symptoms of chronic venous insufficiency. This advanced technique uses ultrasound imaging to guide the injection of a medical foam directly into the affected veins, causing them to close and eventually be absorbed by the body. Blood flow is naturally redirected to healthier veins, restoring better circulation and improving the appearance of your legs. This minimally invasive procedure is ideal for patients looking for a comfortable, effective option without the need for incisions, stitches, or lengthy downtime.
At Heart Vascular and Leg Center, we prioritize your well-being at every step of your angioplasty journey. Before your procedure, our experienced vascular specialists will guide you through the entire process so you feel informed and prepared. Here’s how you can get ready:
During the procedure, a specially formulated foam solution is carefully injected into the targeted veins under real-time ultrasound guidance. The foam displaces blood within the vein, allowing the vein walls to stick together and close. The procedure is quick, and most patients resume normal activities within a day.

At Heart Vascular and Leg Center, our experienced vascular specialists perform Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy with a focus on precision, safety, and patient comfort. Here’s what you can expect during the procedure:
Local Anesthesia – To minimize discomfort, a local anesthetic is applied to the treatment area.
Ultrasound Imaging – Using real-time ultrasound, your provider identifies the exact location of the diseased veins.
Foam Injection – A special medical foam solution is injected into the affected vein under ultrasound guidance.
The foam displaces blood and causes the vein walls to collapse and seal shut.
Re-Routing of Blood – Once the vein is closed, blood naturally reroutes to healthier surrounding veins, improving circulation.
Post-Treatment Care – Compression stockings are applied to support healing and promote proper blood flow.
The entire procedure is typically completed in under an hour and does not require any surgical incisions.
After your procedure, you’ll be able to walk and return home the same day. Mild bruising, tightness, or tenderness at the injection site is normal and temporary. Most patients resume regular daily activities within 24 to 48 hours, though it's recommended to avoid high-impact exercise for about a week. Wearing compression stockings as directed and walking regularly can enhance recovery and optimize results.
Recovery is generally smooth and quick. You may begin to notice improvement in symptoms such as aching, swelling, or heaviness in the legs within a few days to weeks following treatment.
To maintain long-term vein health and reduce the risk of recurrence, your doctor may recommend: Regular physical activity like walking Elevating your legs when resting Wearing compression stockings as needed Avoiding prolonged standing or sitting Managing weight and staying hydrated Follow-up appointments help us monitor your progress and determine if additional treatments are needed for other veins.
