Types of Therapy
     
 

Ligation and Stripping

Vascular surgeon Dr Norman Chideckel, M.D., offers vein ligation, vein stripping and other vein treatment procedures. Serving Lower East Side, Upper East Side, Tribeca, SoHo, Chelsea, Flushing, Englewood, Teaneck, Tenafly, Fort Lee and all surrounding areas of Manhattan, New York City, NYC.Ligation and Stripping is performed on long straight segments of superficial veins and involves removal of the entire vein. It is used to treat large varicose veins. This type of surgery is recommended when removal of the vein can ensure a very thorough disconnection of veins in the groin and thigh and thereby reduce the risk of recurrence. It is performed using spinal or general anesthesia at a day surgery center. Patients are encouraged to ambulate that same day.

The Endovenous Laser Procedure

Vascular surgeon Dr Norman Chideckel, M.D., offers Endovenous Laser Treatment and other vein treatment procedures. Serving Lower East Side, Upper East Side, Tribeca, SoHo, Chelsea, Flushing, Englewood, Teaneck, Tenafly, Fort Lee and all surrounding areas of Manhattan, New York City, NYC.Eliminate unsightly veins at the source. The twisted bulging that causes discomfort and/or embarrassment results from faulty valves in the veins. As blood flows through your veins to the heart, stop valves are supposed to prevent the blood from flowing backwards as gravity pulls it down. If the valves don't close properly, blood pools in the vein, forcing the walls to enlarge and bulge out.

Ambulatory Phlebectomy

Ambulatory Phlebectomy is done with anesthesia as day surgery. It is carried out by making tiny incisions over the veins and pulling out sections with fine forceps. Stitches are not necessary as the veins involved in this procedure are typically very small and the stab-like incisions leave almost no perceptible scars.

Compression Sclerotherapy

It is possible to obliterate some varicose and spider veins by injecting an irritant substance or a sclerosing agent. This procedure, sclerotherapy and/or foam sclerotherapy, seals off a diseased vein by fibrotic scar tissue that the vein produces as a response to the irritants injection. The addition of compression aids in obtaining a better response.

Veingogh

The VeinGogh Ohmic Thermolysis System provides a superior solution for the treatment of fine telangiectasia, spider veins and small angiomas, especially recalcitrant vessels that have shown a resistance to sclerotherapy, laser or IPL treatment. VeinGogh is considered the fast, easy way to reliably treat these and other aesthetically unacceptable conditions, often with less discomfort compared to older versions of therapy

While other light-based solutions are expensive, skin-type dependent and have an inherent risk of injury, VeinGogh uses a thread-thin, insulated probe to thermocoagulate and instantly eliminate vessels dependably, repeatably, on any skin-type and on any part of the body.
