CLaCS (Cryo Laser & Cryo Sclerotherapy) of varicose veins

What CLaCS vein treatment method is?

CLaCS (Cryo Laser & Cryo Sclerotherapy) is a revolutionary combination treatment of varicose veins and venous capillaries including intensive transdermal laser therapy and injectable sclerotherapy, combined with magnified image reality (special optical system) and intense skin freezing. It is a revolutionary method of treating varicose veins in both the body and the leg areas.

How is the CLaCS procedure performed?

The laser acts on the venous capillary or vein wall and causes selective photothermolysis without damaging the skin. The diameter of the venous capillary is a reduced in the very same second. After a few seconds, sclerosing substance is injected into the enlarged venous vessel. Special refrigeration equipment is used throughout the procedure. The procedure is carried out using a special magnifying and vein scanning system. With it, the doctor can clearly see even the smallest veins, nourishing capillaries and blood vessels on the skin surface.

How can a doctor see the subcutaneous nourishing veins and perform the procedure I greatly?

The procedure is performed using a special vein magnifying and scanning optical system. With it, the doctor can see even the smallest venous blood vessels that are not always visible to the naked eye. It is an optical system that helps to clearly see the veins of microscopic diameter on the surface of the skin. The system scans the venous network image with the help of special infrared sensors, then it enlarges and projects them on the surface of the skin. Such a pattern of the blood vessels on the skin surface is also called the magnified image reality.

Is the procedure painful?

A strong stream of cold air is sprayed in the treatment area during the procedure. The cold significantly reduces discomfort during treatment.
