What Is Vein Ablation?
A vein ablation procedure may be an effective treatment option if you struggle with painful, swollen veins. This minimally invasive treatment is designed to close off damaged veins, improve circulation, and relieve swelling, heaviness, and discomfort. Vein ablation surgery is commonly performed to treat varicose veins and chronic venous insufficiency, preventing further complications and enhancing leg health. Dr. Amiel Moshfegh and his team are proud to offer advanced vein treatments tailored to each patient's needs. Contact Southern California Vascular Institute in Bakersfield or Los Angeles, CA to learn more about how vein ablation can help you regain comfort and confidence in your legs.
How Is Vein Ablation Performed?
Varicose vein ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that uses heat or laser energy to close off damaged veins, redirecting blood flow to healthier veins. During the treatment, Dr. Amiel Moshfegh at Southern California Vascular Institute inserts a thin catheter into the affected vein, applying controlled energy to seal it shut. Patients can typically resume light activities the same day, and full vein ablation recovery takes just a few weeks.
What Are the Benefits of Vein Ablation?
Vein ablation is a highly effective, minimally invasive treatment that helps improve circulation and relieve discomfort caused by damaged veins. This procedure offers several key benefits, including:
- Alleviates leg discomfort, heaviness, and cramping
- Redirects blood flow to healthier veins
- Minimally invasive approach
- Reduces the visibility of varicose veins
- Most patients resume normal activities within days
Southern California Vascular Institute Reviews
Dr Moshfegh was excellent. I was suffering from severe leg pain and varicose veins for several years. He was very thorough in his evaluation. He reviewed all prior imaging I had personally with me and explained everything in great detail. He gave his honest opinion on a treatment plan and didn't push me to pursue any treatment. When I decided on my own to pursue treatment, he performed an outpatient minimally invasive vein surgery in the smoothest manner. I experienced nearly no post procedure pain and for the first time in my life I am pain free and able to continue with my daily activities with much more energy. And best of all the varicosities have completely disappeared. He also offers to review the MRI of my spine with me free of charge and explain to me how and why I have back pain. Truly a compassionate and caring Doctor. One of a kind!
Dr Mosh is a rare physician as he has a very real, honest and personable. He pays attention and is attentive to your concerns prior to, during and after the process. I would definitely use him for any procedures that are in his wheelhouse in the future.
Had a great experience with Dr. Moshfegh, he is So knowledgeable in his field and put you at ease right away. So happy I decided to go with him to treat my varicose veins.
Dr. Mosh and office staff receives an A+++. They got me in right away, dealt with my hip issue. Very friendly and professional.
Dr. Moshfegh is an exceptional doctor. I had an MRI done at his facility and he managed some potentially painful injections in a way that significantly minimized the pain. But most importantly, he took the time to explain his interpretation of the report. Ample time, his valuable time. He's both smart and interested in discovering your underlying problem. He found something no one else had discovered in almost 18 months of pain, surgeries and doctors. I recommend this guy at every level. His staff is fantastic as well
