ASVAL stands for Ambulatory Selective Varices Ablation under Local Anesthesia. When compared to vein sclerotherapy, ASVAL treatment, or ambulatory phlebectomy, often presents more aesthetically-pleasing results for our patients. If performed correctly by a qualified professional such as Dr. Gallagher, ASVAL treatment can remove virtually 100% of varicose or spider veins with little to no scarring afterward. The underlying great saphenous vein, which is frequently dilated and incompetent, can resume its normal function and size. Please watch the video below to learn more about the procedure.
Island Vein Specialists welcomes new patients of all ages in our vein treatment centers in West Islip and Mineola, NY. To learn more about the revolutionary ASVAL treatment to remove varicose and spider veins, we encourage you to reach out to us and schedule a consultation with our vein surgeon. With over 30 years of experience to his credit, Dr. John Gallagher remains at the forefront of varicose vein treatment in the United States. He would love to explain the many benefits of the ASVAL technique to you in-person during your consultation. Many insurance plans cover this procedure, but our offices also offer financing through CareCredit® to ease the financial burden on patients at the time of service. If you have any additional questions or concerns about ASVAL treatment, we urge you to call!
