Laser Surgery
Endovascular Laser: Nowadays saphenectomy perform endovascular laser, the saphenous vein was catheterized at the knee with a needle and guided Doppler ultrasound, a small catheter is advanced with a laser fiber (tube of 3 mm) within the vein, the vein walls and vein are attached is "closed", the blood flows through the deepest other healthy veins thereby eliminating the main cause of varicose veins.

The results of endovascular laser are excellent, the best current alternative to avoid surgery, its results are equal to or better than conventional surgery (saphenous surgery) and, unlike surgery, patients, under sedation and local anesthesia, without sutures and with rapid recovery.

No scars or stitches to remove. Small miniflebectomía marks tend to fade over time, each patient heals differently. The endovascular laser leaves no marks or scars.
