Why VenaSeal™ is a leading treatment method in vein treatment – results from randomized multi-center studies

At the VenaZiel Vein Competence Center Berlin, we rely on state-of-the-art technologies to offer our patients the best treatment results. One of the most innovative and effective methods we offer is the VenaSeal™ system, which has proven its outstanding safety and effectiveness in numerous clinical studies in recent years. Based on the results of randomized multi-center studies, we would like to present the advantages of this treatment method to you in a detailed and easy-to-understand manner.

1. outstanding closure rates: immediate and long-term effectiveness

The closure rate is a key indicator of the effectiveness of a treatment method for varicose veins. The data shows that VenaSeal™ is the leader in this area:

• One year after treatment, VenaSeal™ has a closure rate of 96.8% – a value that is not only comparable to radiofrequency ablation (RFA; where heat is generated by radio waves to close the vein, 96.3%), but also significantly outperforms other procedures such as ClariVein™ (a minimally invasive method using a catheter, 92%) and endovenous laser therapy (EVLA; where the vein is closed using laser energy, 92.3%).
• The results also remain stable in the long term:
  • After 2 years: 95.3 % (VenaSeal™) compared to 94.5 % (radiofrequency ablation).
  • After 3 years: 94.4 % (VenaSeal™) compared to 91.6 % (radiofrequency ablation).
  • After 5 years: VenaSeal™ maintains its top position with a closure rate of 94.6 %.

These results show that VenaSeal™ offers an extremely reliable and effective solution not only in the short term, but also in the long term.

2. excellent safety record: no risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT)

A particularly important advantage of the VenaSeal™ system is the extremely low complication rate. Compared to other procedures, the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT, i.e. a dangerous blood clot in a deep vein) is virtually non-existent with VenaSeal™:

• The studies show a DVT rate of 0% for VenaSeal™.
• Other procedures have a significantly higher risk here:
  • Endovenous laser therapy (EVLA): 2.4 %
  • Varithena™ (a method in which a special foam is used to close the vein): 8.6%

This outstanding safety record makes VenaSeal™ particularly suitable for patients with an increased risk of thrombosis or comorbidities that could complicate other treatments.

3. minimal stress for patients: gentle and effective

In contrast to thermal procedures such as radiofrequency ablation or endovenous laser therapy, the VenaSeal™ system is based on an innovative adhesive technology. This method has numerous advantages:

• No application of heat: Since VenaSeal™ does not use thermal energy, there is no risk of burns or nerve damage that can occur with heat procedures.
• No tumescent anesthesia required: Unlike radiofrequency or laser treatment, VenaSeal™ does not require anesthesia of the entire vein by injecting an anesthetic fluid (tumescent anesthesia). Only the injection site is anesthetized, which makes the procedure much easier and more comfortable.
• Quick return to everyday life: patients can resume their normal activities immediately after treatment. A longer recovery period or the wearing of compression stockings is not necessary.

4. sustainable results and esthetic benefits

In addition to the high closure rate, VenaSeal™ also offers aesthetic benefits:

• As no thermal injuries occur and only a small skin access is required, the skin remains intact. This is particularly important for patients who value an aesthetically pleasing result.
• The method not only relieves symptoms such as pain and swelling, but also leads to a visible improvement in the appearance of varicose veins.

5. scientifically sound and recognized worldwide

The effectiveness and safety of VenaSeal™ have been investigated in various randomized multi-center studies with more than 50 patients per treatment method. These studies provide a solid scientific basis and show that VenaSeal™ is not only an alternative, but in many respects the preferred choice for the treatment of varicose veins.

Summary: VenaSeal™ – The future of vein therapy

The VenaSeal™ system is one of the most advanced methods for treating venous disorders. The combination of high closure rates, an excellent safety record and patient-friendly application makes it an ideal choice – both for patients looking for an effective treatment and for doctors who value the latest therapeutic procedures.
