The Vein Center
New York Downtown Hospital



The Vein Center, under the direction of Dr. Steven Friedman and Dr. Herrick Wun, uses a state-of-the-art laser device to seal varicose veins shut. This technique is proven to be the best way to eliminate varicose veins, ensuring that you look and feel better fast.

The laser vein treatment procedure utilizes the latest technology to achieve proven results without the discomfort and length of recovery experienced after surgery. The entire procedure takes less than one hour and is covered my most insurance plans. During laser vein treatment, a thin fiber is inserted into the main malfunctioning vein. Laser light causes the vein to close and seal shut. After treatment, the appearance of the abnormal vein is often instantly improved with minimal to no scarring.

The advantages of our new technology include:

   -treatment in less than an hour
   -fast relief of symptoms
   -treatment performed in the physician's office
   -immediate return to normal activity
   -no anesthesia or hospital stay
   -no scars
