How Endovenous Laser Ablation Works?
EVLA is the gold standard for treating large, diseased veins. The procedure relies on targeted heat energy to seal the vein shut.
|
Feature |
EVLA Treatment Details |
| Procedure | A thin laser fiber is inserted into the affected vein using a tiny puncture. Laser energy is delivered as the fiber is pulled back, causing the vein walls to seal shut. |
| Mechanism | The sealed vein is reabsorbed by the body over time. Blood is immediately rerouted to nearby healthy veins, improving circulation. |
| Patient Experience | Quick (30 to 45 minutes), performed with local anesthesia, and requires zero downtime. Patients walk immediately after the procedure to promote fast healing and recovery. |
| Diagnostics | The procedure is performed under Duplex Ultrasound guidance (vein mapping) to ensure precise placement and targeting of the problem vein. |
