Endo Laser treatment is a surgery with minimal trauma and a good aesthetic result, usually performed under local anesthesia. During the procedure the affected vein is closed and is subsequently absorbed by the body and disappears. After the treatment it’s possible to return to normal function very quickly. Today, varicose veins treatment with laser is an alternative to conventional vein-removal surgery – Stripping. Treatment of veins by Endo Laser is performed under local anesthesia through an injection.
This type of vein treatment is performed under local anesthesia, therefore it has next to no age limit.
Use of ultrasound during the procedure reduces the possibility of the veins reappearing after the Endo Laser surgery. Performing a postoperative ultrasound (Doppler) examination allows treatment with injections into the veins if necessary. The optimal aesthetic result, minimal surgical trauma and a very swift return to normal function – those are the benefits of Endo Laser treatment versus conventional vein surgery (Stripping).
A laser fiber is inserted into the vein and all the way through its length. The thermal energy of the laser device seals the vein across the entire length. After the procedure an elastic stocking must be worn, and the patient should start being in motion. The entire procedure lasts about an hour, with a return to normal function possible immediately after. Vein treatment by intravenous laser is performed through a needle injection, leaving no scars or bruising. The Endo Laser treatment is usually performed in addition to other procedures. In the early stages of Saphenous Vein failure, laser surgery is nearly an ideal solution.
