Endovenous Laser Therapy for Varicose Veins: What to Expect

Endovenous Laser Therapy (EVLT) is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat certain varicose veins caused by faulty vein valves. During treatment, a thin laser fiber is guided into the affected vein using ultrasound imaging. Laser energy heats and closes the vein, allowing blood to redirect through healthier veins. EVLT is typically performed in an outpatient setting and may involve less discomfort and recovery time than traditional surgical vein procedures. A vein specialist can evaluate your symptoms and circulation to determine whether endovenous laser treatment is appropriate for you. USA Vein Clinics offers personalized evaluations and treatment options for eligible patients.
