Varicose Veins — Case study
- Presentation
- 10 years of bulging veins on both calves with evening heaviness, night cramps and itching that disturbed sleep. An IT professional working 11-hour shifts seated.
- Treatment
- Bilateral 1470 nm endovenous laser ablation (EVLA) of the great saphenous vein with ambulatory phlebectomy of bulging tributaries — done as a single day-care procedure under local anaesthesia.
- Outcome
- Walked out of the hospital the same evening. Back to work in 48 hours. Complete resolution of leg heaviness at 4 weeks. Cosmetic improvement visible by 8 weeks.
I had postponed treatment for years thinking it needed major surgery. The whole laser procedure was over before I realised it. I just wish I'd come earlier.Learn about this treatment →
