- Safe and effective technique with no need for tumescent anesthesia
- Eliminates the risk of nerve or skin damage or paresthesia from thermal energy
- Excellent results by combining mechanical agitation and proven sclerosants
- Ideally suited for treatment of the great or small saphenous veins
- High patient comfort level and acceptance
- No staining observed
MOCA™ varicose vein treatment, using the patented ClariVein catheter combines two methods of action:
- Mechanical agitation of the vessel endothelia by the rotating catheter tip
- A sclerosant drug sprayed from the tip of the catheter, as it is pulled back to ensure maximum effect
In this treatment, a rotating catheter is passed along the saphenous vein. As it is withdrawn, a sclerosing injection is introduced into the saphenous vein. ClariVein achieves occlusion of 90% of saphenous veins at 1 year, according to published studies. This is very similar to other minimally invasive methods. The conclusions reached so far are based on a limited number of clinical series, followed up for 1 – 2 years. Long-term efficacy is yet to be established. This is a promising technique, but it is not yet clear, whether it has advantages over foam sclerotherapy, which is technically less complex.
