Smooth Veins, Simple Solution
What is Varithena?
Varithena® is an advanced, minimally invasive injectable treatment designed to improve blood flow and close problematic varicose veins.
At NJ Vein Care and Aesthetics Center in Clifton, New Jersey, vascular surgeon Gary Nackman, MD, FACS, uses Varithena to relieve symptoms like aching, heaviness, swelling, and visible bulging veins. This foam-based therapy targets veins that are difficult to treat with traditional methods, including tortuous or twisted vessels. The procedure is quick, performed in the office, and typically requires little to no downtime.
Varithena not only alleviates discomfort but also improves the appearance of your legs, helping patients feel more confident. The treatment is guided by ultrasound to ensure precision and effectiveness. Multiple veins can often be treated in a single session. Varithena is a safe and effective option for patients seeking minimally invasive relief from vein-related issues.

How Varithena Works
Varithena® works by injecting a specially formulated foam directly into the diseased vein.
The foam fills the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Once closed, blood naturally reroutes to surrounding healthy veins, restoring proper circulation in the leg. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and guided by ultrasound for precise targeting of the affected veins. Patients typically experience minimal discomfort during the treatment, and recovery is quick, with most resuming normal activities soon after.
Over time, the body absorbs the closed vein, leaving no trace of the treated vessel. Compression stockings may be recommended after the procedure to support healing and maximize results. Follow-up visits ensure the treated veins are responding well and that circulation has improved.

Making an appointment at this office was easy and painless. The office staff was courteous, kind, and helpful. Outgoing and made my visit a great experience. Dr. Nackman was great, personable, did the sonogram of my legs and gave me answers right then and there followed up with any suggestions needed. Very professional and I would recommend this office and this doctor if you are looking for a Vascular Surgeon/Specialist.
