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.
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.
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.
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.
ELVeS is ideal for those with weak or leaky leg veins. This technique treats both large and minor saphenous vein issues.
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.
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.
The expense of treating varicose veins is highly variable and depends on the patient and the treatment opted for.
