Varicose Veins
Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA)
- The laser fiber is inserted through a catheter into the varicose vein.
- While emitting the laser light laterally and uniformly into the vessel the fiber is slowly retracted.
- The photons are absorbed by both the vascular wall and blood cells. The tissue will heat up to 70°C.
- This will lead to vessel closure and slow break down of the cell residues over time.
- Blood reflux takes place via existing veins.
- Endovenous laser ablation results in effective closure of varicose veins, leading to improved circulation, reduced pain and swelling, and enhanced overall leg appearance and function for the patient.
