Vericose Veins treatment
What are varicose veins?
Varicose veins are large, bulging veins caused by backflow of blood. Normally, the blood flows in the veins from the foot, upwards towards the lungs and heart. This flow is controlled by valves that allow blood to flow only in one direction. Certain factors, such as heredity, family history, pregnancy, or other reasons cause these valves to become damaged, which creates bi-directional blood flow. This causes the veins to dilate from increased pressure, and turn into visible varicose veins. Varicose veins can make everyday activities such as walking, exercise and driving uncomfortable.

What is Endovenous Laser Ablation?
The Endovenous Laser Treatment is minimally invasive and performed under local anesthetic. With the Endovenous Laser, a thin optic fiber is introduced through a needle into the varicose vein via ultrasound guidance. The laser energy is then activated, and the laser fiber is slowly withdrawn from the vein. This procedure generates enough heat to close the vein. With the closure of the main varicose veins, the smaller, surrounding veins may shrink or disappear. This vein is ultimately converted into scar tissue and absorbed by the body. Once the diseased vein is closed, the blood is re-routed naturally through healthy veins.
