Both Radiofrequency ablation with Closurefast and Endovenous laser therapy are endovenous thermal ablations to treat varicose veins. Most insurances will cover both Radiofrequency ablation with Closurefast and Endovenous laser therapy for the treatment of varicose veins. During the procedure, heat causes the walls of the vein to contract and then close as the Radiofrequency ablation catheter or laser is withdrawn. In endovenous laser, all of the heat is at the tip of the laser fiber and how much energy or heat is delivered to the wall of the target vein is determined by how fast the fiber is pulled back. Radiofrequency will treat the vein in longer segments (3-8cm) and the device will automatically adjust the delivered energy to keep the radio frequency heating element at a constant temperature for the 20 second treatment cycle. The RF catheter is then pulled back to treat the next segment and no energy is delivered during the pull back.<\/p>\n<p>While both laser and Radiofrequency ablation are highly effective, there have been several studies published indicating that patients experience less pain and bruising after the procedure with the Radiofrequency ablation than they do with the laser. Dr. Heeringa has used both devices in the past but made the switch to using Radiofrequency ablation exclusively after seeing the difference in post-op pain in his patients.<\/p>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/contact\/\" target=\"_self\">\n                        Schedule an appointment\n                                    <\/a>\n    <figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/elen-sher-DcZGtlS5ZLE-unsplash@2x.jpg\" alt=\"elen-sher-DcZGtlS5ZLE-unsplash@2x\" height=\"1196\" width=\"800\" title=\"elen-sher-DcZGtlS5ZLE-unsplash@2x\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n<h3>\n\t\t\tBenefits Of Radiofrequency Ablation\t<\/h3>\n\t<ul>\n<li><strong>Relief of symptoms<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Less invasive; not a surgical procedure<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Same day, outpatient procedure<\/strong><\/li>\n<li><strong>Little to no scarring<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/contact\/\" target=\"_self\">\n                        Schedule an appointment\n                                    <\/a>\n    <figure itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\">\n\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/507528dc9247a09f9e38dd836c03abd6@2x.jpg\" alt=\"507528dc9247a09f9e38dd836c03abd6@2x\" height=\"819\" width=\"800\" title=\"507528dc9247a09f9e38dd836c03abd6@2x\" onerror=\"this.style.display='none'\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>\n\t<\/figure>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tWho Is a Good Candidate for Radiofrequency Ablation?\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>If you have varicose veins, you&#8217;re likely to be a great candidate for radiofrequency ablation to remove them.

The Radiofrequency ablation procedure is preferred by Dr. Heeringa.<\/p>\n<p>After using ultrasound to map the course of the vein to be treated, the physician guides a catheter (thin tube) through a small incision into the diseased vein, threading it through the blood vessel. Electricity is delivered to a heating element in 20-second pulses, heating and contracting the collagen within the walls of the vein until they shrink and shut down. This process is called ablation.<\/p>\n<p>The vein is treated in segments as the catheter is gradually inched back down towards the incision. When the entire vein has been ablated, the blood flow is automatically rerouted through healthier adjacent veins, restoring healthy circulation and reducing swelling. The ablated vein becomes scar tissue and is absorbed by the body. Possible complications of endovenous radiofrequency ablation are thermal skin burns and temporary numbness.<\/p>\n<p>Radiofrequency ablation is usually covered by most private insurers and Medicare when proof of medical necessity and previous conservative therapy is provided. Approved for use in the United States by the Food and Drug Administration in 1999, the Radiofrequency ablation treatment procedure is performed under local anesthesia in a physician&#8217;s office, ambulatory surgical center, or hospital. Patients are encouraged to walk immediately following the procedure and are usually able to resume their normal activities within a day.<\/p>\n<p>Both Radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser ablations are thermal ablation techniques and are alternatives to the more invasive leg stripping surgery that requires hospitalization and general anesthesia. Radiofrequency ablation and Endovenous Thermal Ablation are used primarily to treat the great saphenous veins (GSV), small saphenous vein (SSV), and other superficial veins in the legs.<\/p>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/contact\/\" target=\"_self\">\n                        Schedule an appointment\n                                    <\/a>\n    <h2>\n\t\t\tRadiofrequency Ablation FAQs\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"fl-accordion--label-0\">How Long Does Radiofrequency Ablation Treatment Take?<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" id=\"fl-accordion--icon-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"fl-accordion--panel-0\"><i>Expand<\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>These treatments at our Traverse City and Cadillac offices only take from 45 minutes to an hour.

Radiofrequency energy uses lower temperatures than laser endovenous ablation, so patients are more comfortable.

Dr. Heeringa advises patients to exhaust conservative treatment options &#8211; wearing compression stockings, losing weight, exercise (particularly with your legs), and elevating your legs while sitting &#8211; before opting to have Endovenous Thermal Ablation.<\/p>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/contact\/\" target=\"_self\">\n                        Schedule an appointment\n                                    <\/a>\n    \t\t<p>Form <strong>Take Our Brief Vein Quiz<\/strong> will render when editor not active.<\/p>\n\t\t<h2>\n\t\t\tThe Endovenous Laser Ablation Treatment\t<\/h2>\n\t<p>Endovenous Laser Ablation uses laser energy, which is simply a highly concentrated beam of light. Medical lasers work by delivering this light energy to the targeted tissue with extreme precision, so as not to affect the surrounding tissue. Lasers have proven their safety and effectiveness through years of use in all types of medical procedures, from eye surgery to dermatology. In the hands of a skilled physician, lasers offer far less risk for complications than conventional surgery.<\/p>\n<p>In Endovenous Thermal Ablation, a thin fiber is inserted into the damaged vein through a tiny entry point in the skin. Using ultrasound technology, a thin laser fiber is guided into the vein through a very small opening to deliver pulsed laser heat to the diseased vein wall. This causes the vein to close and seal shut and eliminates venous reflux at its source. The veins that are closed are superficial veins that handle less than five percent of the body&#8217;s blood flow. The blood is automatically routed to other, healthy veins.<\/p>\n<p>Some physicians are now using a jacketed fiber, which prevents any contact between the fiber and the vein wall. The jacketed fiber prevents much of the pain and bruising that is often associated with the most conventional method of ligation and stripping. Some patients may experience temporary soreness or some slight swelling, which can be treated effectively with over-the-counter, non-aspirin pain relievers, and typically subsides within 1 to 2 days. Possible complications of endovenous laser treatment are thermal skin burns and transient numbness.<\/p>\n<p>Both Radiofrequency ablation and Endovenous Thermal Ablation procedures are an alternative to more invasive leg stripping surgery that requires hospitalization and general anesthesia. Radiofrequency ablation and Endovenous Thermal Ablation are used primarily to treat the great saphenous veins (GSV), small saphenous vein (SSV), and other superficial veins in the legs. Varicose veins that branch off from these blood vessels are treated with Sclerotherapy or Ambulatory Phlebectomy.<\/p>\n                <a href=\"https:\/\/dev.mindutopia.com\/nm-vein\/contact\/\" target=\"_self\">\n                        Schedule an appointment\n                                    <\/a>\n    <h2>\n\t\t\tEndovenous Laser Ablation FAQs\t<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"fl-accordion--label-0\">Are The Results Of My Endovenous Laser Ablation Permanent?<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" id=\"fl-accordion--icon-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"fl-accordion--panel-0\"><i>Expand<\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>The veins closed off by Dr. Heeringa with Endovenous Thermal Ablation are permanently closed. They won&#8217;t return to pumping blood, so they then cannot become varicose veins either. Most veins treated with laser ablation are effectively invisible, even to ultrasound, 12 months after the procedure. There isn&#8217;t any scarring with this procedure, and there is little, if any, discomfort. The treated vein will not return. Of course, you can still develop other varicose veins in the future.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 id=\"fl-accordion--label-1\">What Are The Possible Side Effects Of Endovenous Laser Ablation?<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<button type=\"button\" id=\"fl-accordion--icon-1\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"fl-accordion--panel-1\"><i>Expand<\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t<p>As with any procedure where the skin is penetrated, there is a slight risk of injection, but this occurs in less than 1 in 1,000 cases. Since the catheter is inside the blood vessel, there is a risk of damage to the blood vessel, bruising or bleeding at the puncture site, and infection. The experience of Dr. Heeringa and our team at Northern Michigan Vein Specialists mitigates this risk.<\/p>\n<p>Patients often have some post-procedure bruising and tenderness. Your compression stockings help to ease these effects.<\/p>\n<p>Thrombophlebitis (swelling of the vein) is not uncommon, and this can cause pain and tenderness over the treated area. Most patients only need over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medication and ice to handle the pain.<\/p>\n<p>There is an extremely low risk of a pulmonary embolism where a blood clot forms in the vein and can travel to the lungs.<\/p>\n<h2>\n\t\t\tPatient Testimonials\t<\/h2>\n\t<pre class=\"ti-widget\"><template id=\"trustindex-google-widget-html\"><div class=\" ti-widget  ti-goog ti-disable-font ti-review-text-mode-readmore ti-text-align-left\" data-no-translation=\"true\" data-time-locale=\"%d %s ago|today|day|days|week|weeks|month|months|year|years\" data-plugin-version=\"13.2.9\" data-layout-id=\"4\" data-layout-category=\"slider\" data-set-id=\"light-background\" data-pid=\"\" data-language=\"en\" data-close-locale=\"Close\" data-review-target-width=\"300\" data-css-version=\"2\" data-reply-by-locale=\"Owner's reply\" data-only-rating-locale=\"This user only left a rating.\" data-pager-autoplay-timeout=\"6\"> <div class=\"ti-widget-container ti-col-3\"> <div class=\"ti-reviews-container\"> <div class=\"ti-controls\"> <div class=\"ti-next\" aria-label=\"Next review\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\"><\/div> <div class=\"ti-prev\" aria-label=\"Previous review\" role=\"button\" tabindex=\"0\"><\/div> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-reviews-container-wrapper\">  <div data-empty=\"0\" data-time=\"1766102400\" class=\"ti-review-item source-Google ti-image-layout-thumbnail\" data-id=\"cfcd208495d565ef66e7dff9f98764da\"> <div class=\"ti-inner\"> <div class=\"ti-review-header\"> <div class=\"ti-platform-icon ti-with-tooltip\"> <span class=\"ti-tooltip\">Posted on <\/span> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Google\/icon.svg\" alt=\"\" width=\"20\" height=\"20\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-img\"> <trustindex-image data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/a-\/ALV-UjXvJq327YeXeCzx14Vw-QKhAD331PXe2Mm9pxDHFpZPcjwjRxci=w40-h40-c-rp-mo-ba2-br100\" alt=\"Jadynn Edwardson profile picture\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image> <\/div> <div class=\"ti-profile-details\"> <div class=\"ti-name\"> Jadynn Edwardson <\/div> <div class=\"ti-date\"><\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <span class=\"ti-stars\"><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Google\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Google star 1\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Google\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Google star 2\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Google\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Google star 3\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Google\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Google star 4\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><trustindex-image class=\"ti-star\" data-imgurl=\"https:\/\/cdn.trustindex.io\/assets\/platform\/Google\/star\/f.svg\" alt=\"Google star 5\" width=\"17\" height=\"17\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/trustindex-image><span class=\"ti-verified-review ti-verified-platform\"><span class=\"ti-verified-tooltip\">Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.<\/span><\/span><\/span> <div class=\"ti-review-text-container ti-review-content\"><!-- R-CONTENT -->I had such an amazing experience getting Botox!

Due to my experience at Northern Michigan vein specialist. I felt compelled to write one.\nI have lived many years with pain in my legs. Over the years the pain was only getting worse. I knew something had to be done.\n\nSo I began my search for a vein specialist. I wanted a alternative to vein stripping. My search brought me to Dr. Heeringa at Northern Michigan vein specialist.\n\nI would like to begin by saying, how refreshing it was to experience on time appointments. The staff at Northern Michigan vein specialist are wonderful! The staff is friendly, caring and knowledgeable.\nMy first procedure, I was nervous. Let me say Dr. Heeringa is amazing!\nPutting my mind quickly at ease.\nDr. Heeringa talked me through the entire process.\nI honestly don't know why I waited so long to get my veins taken care of. For myself I noticed results within a week.\nI am riding a bike again for the first time in six years. I have never felt better. The results are incredible.\n\nThank you Dr. Heeringa for giving me back my pain free active lifestyle.\nThe best call I ever made.\nSo please don't hesitate to call Dr. Heeringa at Northern Michigan vein specialist today.
