Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins

Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins at Saru Hospital, Mumbai

Varicose veins are a common condition that can cause swelling, discomfort, and unsightly bulging veins, often in the legs. While varicose veins are generally not a serious health threat, they can significantly impact quality of life. At Saru Hospital, we offer advanced laser treatment for varicose veins, a minimally invasive procedure that provides effective results with minimal discomfort and a quick recovery time. Our experienced vascular specialists are dedicated to offering safe and effective solutions tailored to your needs.

What is Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins?

Laser treatment for varicose veins, also known as Endovenous Laser Therapy (EVLT), uses focused laser energy to target and close off varicose veins. The laser energy heats up the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut, after which the body gradually absorbs the treated vein. This procedure is performed on an outpatient basis and does not require any incisions or stitches, making it an ideal solution for patients seeking a minimally invasive treatment option.

Benefits of Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins

• Minimally Invasive: No incisions or stitches are required, making the procedure virtually painless and with minimal scarring.
• Quick Recovery: Most patients experience minimal downtime and can return to their normal activities within 1-2 days.
• Highly Effective: Laser therapy offers a high success rate in treating varicose veins, providing long-lasting results with fewer complications.
• Minimal Pain: Unlike traditional vein stripping surgery, laser treatment causes very little discomfort during and after the procedure.
• Outpatient Procedure: The treatment is performed in a single session, and you can go home the same day.
• No Need for General Anesthesia: The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, reducing the risks associated with general anesthesia.

How Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins Works

The laser treatment for varicose veins is a simple, yet highly effective process:

• Consultation and Evaluation: During your initial consultation, our vascular specialist will evaluate the extent of your varicose veins and recommend a customized treatment plan.
• Local Anesthesia: The procedure begins with the application of local anesthesia to the affected area to ensure you are comfortable throughout the treatment.
• Laser Application: A thin laser fiber is inserted into the affected vein through a small entry point. The laser emits energy that heats the vein, causing it to collapse and close off. Blood is naturally rerouted through healthier veins.
• Post-Treatment Care: After the procedure, patients are advised to wear compression stockings to help with the healing process and encourage the blood flow in the treated area.

Who is a Suitable Candidate for Laser Treatment for Varicose Veins?

Laser treatment for varicose veins is ideal for individuals who:

• Have visible varicose veins causing discomfort, pain, or aesthetic concerns.
• Experience symptoms such as heaviness, swelling, aching, or cramping in the legs.
• Have varicose veins that have not responded to conservative treatments like compression stockings or lifestyle changes.
• Prefer a minimally invasive option with a quick recovery time and minimal risk.

During your consultation, our specialist will determine if you are a good candidate for laser therapy based on the severity and location of your varicose veins.

Post-Treatment Care and Recovery

One of the main advantages of laser treatment for varicose veins is the minimal recovery time. After the procedure, most patients can return to their daily routine almost immediately. However, following a few simple post-treatment guidelines will ensure optimal healing:

• Compression Stockings: Wearing compression stockings for a few weeks after the procedure helps to reduce swelling and support the healing process.
• Physical Activity: Light walking is encouraged after the treatment, but strenuous activities or heavy lifting should be avoided for a few days.
• Avoid Prolonged Standing or Sitting: It’s important to avoid standing or sitting for long periods to improve blood circulation.
• Follow-Up Appointments: Our team will schedule follow-up visits to monitor your progress and ensure that the treated veins are healing properly.
