Vein Treatment Varicose Veins Laser Lipo & Vein Care Center Ask the Doctor

I’ve heard that endovenous laser treatments actually remove or destroy the saphenous vein in the leg. Is this true, and will I still get enough blood circulation to the legs if this large vessel is removed?

Yes, endovenous laser ablation destroys the underlying cause of varicose veins and venous insufficiency. The saphenous vein that is leaking blood the wrong direction causes symptoms and varicose veins by causing pooling of blood. You have a network of veins in your legs and by closing down the leaking vein(s), you actually improve your venous circulation so blood can get out of your leg like it’s supposed to.
