When Venous Insufficiency Affects Your Legs
Faulty valves in the leg veins can cause blood to pool (reflux), leading to pain and visible varicose veins. EVLA treats the source of the problem—the refluxing vein—so symptoms improve and appearance follows.
⚠️
Venous Insufficiency Symptoms
When vein valves fail, pressure builds and tissues become congested. EVLA seals the diseased vein so healthy veins can restore normal flow.
Common signs you may benefit include:
-
Aching, heaviness, or throbbing in the calves
-
Ankle/leg swelling that worsens through the day
-
Night cramps or restless legs
-
Itching or burning along visible veins
-
Tired legs after standing or sitting
⚠️
Small Varicose Vein Issues
Bulging, twisted surface veins are often fed by a deeper refluxing vein (commonly the great or small saphenous). EVLA closes that source.
Typical findings:
-
Prominent, rope-like veins that worsen with activity
-
Local tenderness or pain after long days
-
Skin irritation over visible veins
-
Recurrent superficial vein inflammation (phlebitis)
-
Discomfort with exercise or prolonged standing
⚠️
Skin Changes & Advanced Disease
Chronic venous pressure can damage skin and soft tissue. Treating reflux helps protect leg health.
-
Brownish skin discoloration near the ankles
-
Thickened or itchy skin (stasis dermatitis)
-
Non-healing ankle ulcers or recurrent wounds
-
Persistent swelling despite elevation
-
Prior vein procedures with recurring symptoms

How Endovenous Laser Ablation Treats Varicose Veins
EVLA is a minimally invasive, ultrasound-guided procedure that closes diseased leg veins from the inside using controlled laser energy. By sealing the refluxing vein, blood flow is rerouted to healthy veins—relieving symptoms, improving circulation, and enhancing leg appearance with minimal downtime.
1
Confirm the Source with Duplex Ultrasound
We map refluxing veins and measure severity to ensure EVLA is the right treatment for your condition.
2
Fiber Placement & Tumescent Anesthesia
A tiny entry site is made; a laser fiber is advanced to the starting point inside the vein. Dilute local anesthetic (tumescent) cushions the vein and keeps the procedure comfortable.
3
Laser Closure
Controlled laser energy gently seals the vein as the fiber is withdrawn under continuous ultrasound guidance.

Benefits of Endovenous Laser Ablation Treatment
🎯
Precise Vein Closure
Ultrasound-guided laser energy targets and seals diseased veins with high accuracy, ensuring effective treatment of venous reflux.
🛡️
Minimally Invasive Alternative
Tiny entry site, no general anesthesia, and reduced recovery time compared to vein surgery.
⏰
Quick Office Procedure
Most EVLA sessions take 30–45 minutes with no hospital stay required. Walk in and walk out the same day.
✚
Lasting Results
Treated veins are permanently closed. Additional treatments can address remaining branch veins if needed.
✨
Improved Leg Appearance
Once the refluxing vein is closed, bulging varicose veins soften and fade over time, restoring smoother, healthier-looking legs.
⚡
Symptom Relief
Helps reduce leg aching, heaviness, swelling, and night cramps by improving blood flow and reducing venous pressure.
What to Expect: The Endovenous Laser Ablation Process
Our team ensures every EVLA procedure is precise, comfortable, and tailored to your needs. Here’s what you can expect from start to finish:
1
Initial Consultation
We review your symptoms, medical history, and lifestyle. A vein ultrasound is scheduled or performed to confirm venous reflux and map treatment.
2
Diagnostic Ultrasound
Using duplex imaging, we locate the diseased vein, measure reflux severity, and plan the entry point for the laser fiber.
3
Preparation
Your leg is cleaned and prepped. Local/tumescent anesthesia is applied around the vein to numb the area, protect surrounding tissue, and enhance safety.
4
Laser Treatment
A thin fiber is guided into the vein under ultrasound. Controlled laser energy gently seals the vein as the fiber is withdrawn, closing it permanently.
5
Recovery & Aftercare
You can walk immediately after the procedure. We’ll provide instructions for wearing compression stockings, activity guidelines, and follow-up appointments.
Move with Confidence Again
Don’t let aching, heavy, or swollen legs slow you down. Our board-certified physicians use ultrasound-guided laser therapy to close problem veins safely, comfortably, and effectively—so you can get back to living without leg pain.
