The angioclinic® vein laser
The therapeutic principle behind all modern procedures is to shut down a diseased section of vein without incisions or injury. This relieves pressure on the healthy sections of vein, allowing blood circulation to function properly again and varicose veins to disappear. This is exactly what we offer you in Zurich.
It is worth traveling from anywhere in Switzerland, because you can return home immediately and resume your everyday life free of discomfort—without vein problems.
Fast, straightforward, and personal
How does the angioclinic® vein laser work?
The vein laser closes off diseased veins using high-energy light, which acts on the blood or the vessel wall depending on the wavelength selected. Depending on the task at hand (vessel size, blood clotting, medication), the laser acts more on the blood cells or on the vessel wall.
Depending on the task at hand (vessel size, blood clotting, medication), the wavelength is selected so that it has an optimal effect on the blood cells or the vessel wall. This clever choice of wavelength is a decisive factor for success.
Precision at the highest level
CPLA – Dr. Ragg's groundbreaking innovation
What makes the angioclinic® vein laser unique?
The special feature of the angioclinic® vein laser is the precise adjustment of each vein size to the laser beam using CPLA technology (coaxial perivenous local anesthesia, developed by Dr. Ragg) and the intelligent choice of wavelength (1470–1940 nm). This precise adjustment is the secret to a completely pain-free laser treatment without anesthesia or sedation.
What is CPLA?
CPLA stands for “coaxial perivenous local anesthesia” and was developed by Dr. Ragg. This technique allows each vein size to be precisely adjusted to the laser beam—which is exactly what makes the decisive difference compared to “normal” laser treatments. For particularly large veins, contact with the laser fiber can be optimally established using the Intrashape®-Technique patented by Dr. Ragg.
EVERY VEIN SIZE TREATABLE
The angioclinic® vein centers are the only ones in Switzerland to offer the innovative Intrashape®-Technique. This allows even very large veins to be treated successfully and painlessly with laser or sclerotherapy. Intrashape® uses hyaluronic acid gel to transform large veins into small, easy-to-treat veins. At the same time, the safety of the therapy is further increased.
