2. happy and healthy life free from varicose veins! Why It’s Worth It Laser vein treatments are minimally invasive and surprisingly quick.

Radiofrequency Ablation vs. Endovenous Laser Treatment Your laser treatment options include radiofrequency ablation and endovenous laser treatment. Both are highly effective, with proven results. Laser treatments differ from other nonsurgical varicose vein treatments in that they are often more effective. Similarly, while procedures like sclerotherapy may require additional treatment such as the use of compression stockings, laser treatments are different. Below we outline two similar techniques for treating varicose veins, but only one of them uses a laser! Radiofrequency Ablation uses radiofrequency energy to heat the wall of varicose veins. While nonsurgical, it is minimally invasive, requiring only a small incision just above or below the knee through which to access the vein. Then a catheter is pushed towards the vein using ultrasound scanning, and a probe targets the vein with radiofrequency energy. Once the vein wall starts to heat, the wall will collapse. The vein will then close, redirecting blood to other, healthy veins. Furthermore, radiofrequency ablation can be performed under local or general anesthetic, depending on your Endovenous Laser Treatment, like radiofrequency ablation, also uses a catheter to locate and target varicose veins. Instead of a probe, however, EVLT uses a small laser to do the same job – heat the vein wall until it collapses. The vein is doctor’s recommendation.
