A highly focused laser closes the problem vein so blood reroutes through healthy ones — no stripping surgery required.
Laser vein treatment uses a highly focused beam of light energy to close off the affected vein. Once the vein is sealed, blood naturally redirects into nearby healthy veins, improving circulation and relieving symptoms.
For smaller surface veins, laser energy is applied through the skin — no incision needed.
For larger veins, a thin catheter guides a laser fiber directly into the problem vein. The laser closes the vein from the inside. This approach is far less invasive than traditional vein ligation and stripping, and it carries an efficacy rate of about 94%.
As with any procedure, there are potential side effects worth discussing with your provider, including a small risk of deep vein clotting, skin burns, or temporary nerve-related discomfort during recovery. Our team will review your individual situation and answer every question before treatment.
