The Vein Treatment Process
Dr. Novak and Dr. Saraf are certainly exceptional vein doctors with their unique trajectories and backgrounds. However, they share one crucial commonality — they follow a uniquely comprehensive vein treatment process. They always work with the assumption that your spider veins and varicose veins are caused by underlying venous insufficiency, the circulatory disorder responsible for most vein problems.
Most medical centers treat spider veins with cosmetic procedures that provide temporary relief — they don’t address the underlying root cause. But Dr. Novak and Dr. Saraf always diagnose the underlying root cause and personalize your vein treatment plan. Their uniquely comprehensive and considered vein treatment process ensures optimal results with a negligible risk of recurrence. The following is an overview of their vein treatments.
We know health insurance is confusing so we will help you check if you’re covered:

Step 1: Diagnosis
Our vein doctors examine your leg veins, review your medical history, and discuss your symptoms. They ask you if you experience restless leg syndrome, frequent leg cramps, leg pains, or leg swelling, especially at the end of the day. They also examine your spider veins and varicose veins to look for other possible signs of vein disease, such as leg ulcers and skin disease.
After the initial consultation, they administer advanced vascular imaging tests, like Doppler Ultrasound. These diagnostic tests visualize the direction of the blood flow in your leg veins, conclusively revealing if you have underlying vein disease. Once the underlying vein disease is diagnosed, the vein doctor curates the ideal vein treatment plan for your specific goals and needs. The vein treatment planning is done collaboratively with you.
Step 2: Treatment
If you have underlying venous insufficiency, your primary vein treatment will consist of radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation, or VenaSeal. These procedures use thermal energy, laser energy, or medical adhesives to destroy or seal the diseased saphenous vein. The accumulated blood reroutes to healthier leg veins, restoring effective blood circulation to the heart. These procedures are performed under local anesthesia, making them painless.
After the primary vein treatment, or if you don’t have underlying vein disease, the vein doctor will proceed with a cosmetic treatment. Ambulatory phlebectomy is the ideal minimally invasive treatment for superficial varicose veins — the vein doctor removes the bulging veins through small incisions on the skin. Sclerotherapy is the best minimally invasive spider vein treatment — the vein doctor injects a medicine into the spider veins to make them shrink and disappear.

Step 3: Recovery
Minimally invasive vein treatments conclude within 30 to 60 minutes with no downtime. Dr. Novak and Dr. Saraf discuss your post-treatment recovery guidelines and aftercare, following which you can resume your daily activities. You should avoid lifting heavy objects for a few days, but you can resume most of your activities. You’ll also have to wear compression stockings for a few weeks to maintain optimal blood circulation.
