Benefits of Varicose vein Treatment at AKJ Skin and Laser Centre

Varicose vein surgery hurts and takes time to recover from. At AKJ Skin and Laser centre, we help people with varicose veins get a reconstructive surgery called endovenous laser ablation by ELves PL in south Tamil Nadu. Our consulting physicians are highly trained vascular and endovascular surgeons who provide the procedure. Our clinic has successfully treated over 200 people with this method.

Given below are some of the advantages of this treatment, which includes:
  • Convenient & risk free- The ELVeS PL System's innovative design ensures a risk-free and easy procedure, making endovenous laser treatment easier to administer than ever before.
  • Painless- ELVeS reduces the risk of painful vein perforations during medical procedures. The injection of lidocaine, which is about as painful as a bee sting, causes the most discomfort.
  • No hospitalisation - Vein surgeries leave scars and are costly, and even need hospitalisation, while laser surgery is quick and needs no hospitalisation.
  • Long term solution (95%): This procedure fixes the problem of varicose veins permanently.
  • No side effects- There are no negative effects from this procedure. The treatment makes the skin smooth and doesn't change the skin colour. It also causes less initial bruising.

Procedure Followed by AKJ Skin and Laser Centre for Varicose Vein Treatment

This procedure might take place in the clinic of your chosen healthcare practitioner. The average time for the procedure is around an hour. Most likely, you can go home on the same day. Bring clothes that are easy to put on and take off after your surgery. This procedure is often followed by endovenous laser treatment for varicose veins.

After donning a hospital gown, you will position yourself horizontally on an examination table. During the operation, the table tilts. During the procedure, you may be instructed to wear a pair of special goggles. This protects the eyes from laser light.
Your doctor will numb your vein before inserting a tube or catheter. Your doctor will also sedate the vein being treated.

The vein will be examined with a Doppler ultrasound instrument before and throughout the treatment to ensure smooth sailing. The technique creates a visual representation of the vein with the use of sound waves. To install the catheter, your doctor will create a little incision on your skin. It will be led into the enlarged vein.

In this procedure, a laser fibre is inserted into a catheter. As the catheter is removed, the laser heats the vein. Veins shut and shrink. In most cases, the operation won't take more than an hour. You probably won't require sutures for the little incision made when the catheter was installed. The wound will be covered with a bandage.

AKJ Skin and Laser Centre thoroughly assesses each client and plans therapy after a long conversation. So you'll be in good hands.

Pre Care
Post Care
A week before surgery, you should:
Discuss your medical and health history, as well as any drugs, supplements, or herbal therapies that you are on with the care team.
Improve your level of hydration, and follow a nutritious diet.
Get proper rest. If you push yourself too hard in the days leading up to surgery, it might cause unnecessary complications and stress.
Immediately after the surgery, you will be given instructions to walk for around thirty to sixty minutes. There might be some bruising on your leg. It should take around two weeks for the bruises to completely disappear. After your surgery, you'll need someone to take you home.
Apply an ice pack to the affected region at an interval of fifteen minutes to decrease swelling.
Examine the locations of the incisions every day. It is very usual to see a fluid that has a light pink colour on the bandage.
For the next two days, you should avoid getting the incision areas wet. Until the bandages are removed, take sponge bath. In addition, it is recommended that you avoid taking hot baths for the next one to two weeks.
If your doctor recommends it, you should use compression stockings for a few days or weeks. These stockings provide a moderate amount of pressure on your legs. Your legs will be less likely to swell as a result of this. Additionally, it may prevent blod clotting.
You should avoid sitting or lying down for extended periods of time. When you are seated, make sure your leg is lifted.
Standing for a long time is not recommended. Take a stroll for ten to twenty minutes at three different intervals during the day. Continue doing this for one to two weeks.

FAQ's

Frequently Asked Questions

What signs and symptoms point to the presence of varicose veins?

Vein illness usually causes varicose veins and spider veins. They bring in symptoms that can cause pain, embarrassment, and tiredness. This makes patients feel bad about themselves and prevents them from enjoying active, healthy lives.

What are the reasons that lead to varicose veins?

The abnormal structure of veins is what leads to the development of varicose veins. Veins carry blood from the legs to the heart. Each valve prevents backflow of blood. Dysfunctional valves cause blood to reflux in the veins. This raises venous pressure and weakens arterial sidewalls, dilating the affected arteries.

Who all are eligible for ELVeS?

ELVeS is ideal for those with weak or leaky leg veins. This technique treats both large and minor saphenous vein issues.

How does recovery work?

ELVeS recovery is swift and painless. After the treatment, the surgeon will put a compression garment and have the patient walk for about 20 minutes.

What kind of outcomes might I expect after the procedure?

The success rate for ELVeS is around 98%. Varicose vein discomfort should be relieved virtually immediately after ELVeS therapy. After the IV site heals, the skin should have the same texture and colour as the surrounding tissue.

Is varicose vein treatment procedure expensive?

The expense of treating varicose veins is highly variable and depends on the patient and the treatment opted for.
