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

I’ve been diagnosed with a deep varicose vein and told there were no real safe methods to correct due to the risk for DVT. Is this correct, or is laser therapy safe for deep veins?

There are no really safe methods to treat the deep veins. If your venous insufficiency is severe enough for your leg to be at risk, then there are some surgical centers where complicated surgical methods are available, but these procedures are not indicated for the vast majority of patients with deep venous incompetence and chronic venous insufficiency, which can almost be adequately treated with compression and elevation.
