Subfacial Endoscopic Perforator Surgery (SEPS)

Subfacial Endoscopic Perforator Surgery (SEPS) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure which the doctors use to treat the underlying condition that causes venous ulcers. During the procedure they disconnect the abnormal perforator veins, which cause ulceration because of improperly functioning valves. By disconnecting these veins, they redirect the blood flow to healthy veins. Circulation in the leg is improved, and the ulcer is healed.

The SEPS procedure may enable the ulcer to heal in only four to eight weeks, and may reduce the chance of developing new ulcers.
