to varicose vein treatment

Endovenous laser treatment is a minimally invasive and practically painless procedure.

 

A fibre-optic cable is put into the saphenous vein which is closed by means of laser-emitted thermal energy in the process called ablation. Both legs can be treated during a single session.

After the surgery, you will have to wear a compression stocking on the treated leg. If you’re suffering from extensive varicose veins, reticular veins and spider veins, you are well advised to combine this treatment with foam sclerotherapy.

 

Patients who are professionally active will be happy to hear that this method enables quick return to full activity.
