Varicose Vein Laser Treatment
About Varicose Vein Laser Treatment
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that usually appear in the legs due to poor blood circulation. They occur when vein valves become weak, causing blood to pool in the veins. This condition may lead to pain, swelling, heaviness in the legs, and cosmetic concerns.
Overview
Laser treatment for varicose veins is a minimally invasive procedure that uses laser energy to close the affected veins. Once closed, blood flow is redirected to healthy veins, improving circulation and reducing symptoms.
