Boost Healing & Medication Absorption: Occlusion Therapy at Calgary Vein & Laser

How Our Occlusion Therapy Works

Occlusion therapy is a non-invasive treatment primarily used to improve blood flow, encourage healing, or treat specific conditions like amblyopia (lazy eye). The therapy involves covering or "occluding" the affected area or an unaffected area (in the case of eye treatment) to encourage the proper development or healing of tissues. For skin conditions, occlusion therapy often involves applying medication under a sealed barrier to boost the absorption of treatment.

Results & Recovery for Occlusion Therapy Treatment

Results

Patients can expect improved healing and symptom reduction in conditions like amblyopia, chronic skin conditions, or wounds. For skin treatments, occlusion therapy accelerates the effects of topical medications, providing faster relief from irritation or inflammation.

Recovery

The recovery process is minimal for occlusion therapy. Some patients may experience mild irritation or redness if applied to the skin, but this typically subsides quickly. In eye treatment cases like amblyopia, the therapy is gradual, requiring consistent application for the best results. Normal activities can be resumed immediately, with follow-up treatments as needed.

Treat These Conditions with Occlusion Therapy
