Endovenous Laser Treatment

Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is a modern medical procedure used to treat varicose veins. During this minimally invasive treatment, a laser fiber is inserted into the affected vein through a small needle. The laser energy heats the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut. This redirects blood flow to healthier veins, reducing symptoms like pain and swelling. EVLT typically requires only local anesthesia and involves little recovery time, allowing patients to resume normal activities quickly. It's an effective alternative to traditional vein surgery, offering improved comfort and results.
