The Hook Method.Ever since the 1960s, Swiss surgeon, Dr. Robert Müller from Neuenburg, has continually refined the hook technique.

These little openings allow the veins – even large varicose veins – to be lifted with a fine hook. I then use a special instrument to remove the veins segment by segment. ![]() The Hook Method is very costly, so it is not surprising that, up until recently, a method involving step incisions of 1 to 5 cm has been practised in many clinics and hospitals throughout Switzerland. It doesn’t take much imagination to visualise the difference in cosmetic outcome. Read more See also Answers/FAQ » Post-operative |
