During the ablation of varicose veins by endovenous laser, a laser beam is placed inside the diseased vein in a minimally invasive manner. The vein is treated directly by the energy transmitted by the laser light to the internal venous wall which is heated and then destroyed. The vein undergoes fibrosis, and then disappears over time. This treatment, now considered worldwide as the gold standard to treatment of saphenous vein, lasts about 30 minutes, does not require general anesthesia and allows a quick resumption of activities.
The greater saphenous vein which runs from the groin, along the inside of the leg to the ankle, and the small saphenous vein which runs from the back of the knee to the ankle are best treated with endovenous laser. While they are too deep to be seen with the naked eye, when diseased, they are often the source of many varicose veins at the surface of the skin. Success of varicose vein treatment depends on accurate ultrasound assessment and treating the source of the problem first.
A meeting with our specialist physician prior to treatment will address your needs and concerns and determine the most appropriate solution for treating your varicose veins.
Local anesthesia is applied to be treated to make the procedure more comfortable. Indeed, a small puncture of the vein to be treated is carried out in order to introduce the fiber used there. The laser then destroys the varicose vein, which will fibrose and eventually completely disappear. The incision made to introduce the fiber is then closed using a simple adhesive bandage. It is recommended to wear compression stockings during the first 24 hours after the intervention, then only during the day over a period of two weeks. The appearance of a few painless bruises on the treated area is possible and completely normal. Patients can resume work within 2 days of treatment as long as heavy lifting is avoided. Physical activities may be resumed approximately 15 days after the intervention, after the doctor’s advice. Assessment of the treated vein will be done within 3 days of the procedure and sclerotherapy will be commenced to eliminate the diseased veins that were being fed by the lasered vein.

Endovenous laser treatment can be complemented by other types of intervention, however no further treatment is required.
Certain conditions prevent Endovenous laser treatment, such as varicose veins that are too tortuous or very superficial.
