“Is radiofrequency ablation painful for varicose veins?”

Hello! My name is Nara, I'm a member of Dr. Lathan’s vein specialist team. Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) is performed with the assistance of localized numbing, so at most you’ll feel some slight discomfort during the procedure. You should not experience pain.

After your 15-minute treatment is finished, you’ll be able to walk out of our clinic and drive yourself home, with little downtime or "recovery time." Most patients are back to normal activity in just 24 hours.Temporary side-effects may include slight bruising, or tenderness but this resolves in a few days and can be aided by over the counter pain relievers.
