Concerns that Radiofrequency ablation helps with:
Varicose veins
Radiofrequency ablation involves the passage of RFA probe inside a vein. This technique uses radiofrequency energy to generate heat inside the vein. The heat then damages the inner wall of the vessel. This usually closes off a varicose vein in the leg. Once closed, the main issue if the leg is resolved, as blood does not accumulate in the vein.
Ablation basically refers to heating up tissue. When we say radiofrequency (RF) ablation, we therefore mean that RF energy is used to heat up the tissue in the vein. Once the inner walls of the vein are heated, we mean for the vein to close down. Once the vein closes, it will relieve you of the symptoms that are associated with varicosities, since blood will not accumulate in that vein. The body automatically adjusts and other vessels take over to supply the blood back to the heart.
Once the treatment is completed, you will be asked to follow certain after-care guidelines, which will be detailed later in this page. Please follow them carefully.
There are certain criteria that one has to look at before recommending RFA. RF ablation may not be the right line of treatment in case:
- The vein involved is too small for the catheter to enter or too large to expect proper ablation to take place
- During pregnancy
- When there are aneurysmal sources of venous reflux present
- Compromised deep venous vascular system
- Poor health in general
| Single vein RF ablation cost | Rs. 10000 |
| Multiple veins RF ablation cost (average) | Rs. 35000 |
The top vascular surgeon of Jaipur will first meet you and assess your condition. He will then inform you of the preferred line of treatment.
In case RF ablation is chosen as the preferred line of treatment, you will be taken to the treatment room where local anesthesia will be provided and you will be prepared for the treatment.
The treatment will be performed and after your surgeon is satisfied with the results achieved, you will be asked to leave the minor OT and collect your after-care instructions, to be followed at home.
Dr. Ashish Airen is considered the top vascular surgeon of Jaipur with experience at Maulana Azad Medical College and Medanta Medicity.

We are renowned for our ethical and transparent approach. We are very clear about the costs of your treatment and there are no hidden charges involved.
Once you've completed the treatment, there are certain instructions that you must follow at home:
- you need to wear a compression stocking for 7-10 days after the treatment
- You need to perform a follow-up ultrasound a few days later to help the surgeon ensure that the vein has been occluded
- Some antibiotics may be prescribed to you.
The major risk of the procedure is the potential of infection at the site of incision. However, we have no instances of such an event in the scores of surgeries performed.
