Regulation & Guidelines
Guidelines
Yes. NICE guideline CG168 clearly recommends endothermal ablation as first-line treatment for varicose veins, followed by foam sclerotherapy or surgery if unsuitable. MHRA regulates devices used in treatment. These guidelines shape standard UK care. ([nice.org.uk](https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/cg168))
