Frequently Asked Questions

How does Vein Ablation work?
The laser energy damages the vein walls, shrinking them and closing the faulty vein so that the blood cannot flow through it. This eliminates vein bulging at its source.

Is loss of this vein a problem?
No. After treatment, the blood in the faulty vein will be diverted to the many normal veins in the leg.

What are the complications of this procedure?
The only minimal complications experienced with Vein Ablation have been a small number of cases of numbness that passes quickly.
