EVLT
Get rid of varicose veins and show off your legs again!
Now there is a no-surgery, no-scar way of treating your varicose veins with EVLT®.
EVLT® (EndoVenous Laser Treatment) is a significant advance in the treatment of the large, bulging varicose veins that frequently result from incompetence in the saphenous vein system. As well as being unsightly these veins frequently cause discomfort and if left untreated can lead to further complications.
As blood flows through your veins to the heart, stop-valves are supposed to prevent the blood flowing backwards as gravity pulls it down. If the valves don't close properly, blood pools in the vein, forcing the walls to enlarge and bulge out.
EVLT® uses targeted laser energy to seal the vein shut and help you look and feel better fast.
