Minimally-invasive varicose vein treatment

Blumental Clinic provides fast and effective treatment of chronic venous disease, including varicose veins, spider veins, thread veins, vascular ulcers and symptoms such as heavy legs, itching and night time cramps, using Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT).

Using LASOTRONIX SMART M laser technology, a special optical fibre is inserted into the vein that needs treating through a small puncture area under ultrasound navigation. Once in position, the fibre emits radiation that is converted into heat, sealing the vein without damaging surrounding tissues. Compared to older versions, this new generation of optical fibres make it possible to use significantly lower doses of energy, minimising even further the risk of side-effects and guaranteeing a shorter recovery time.

The advantages of EVLT are minimal pain and scarring, and a short post-surgical convalescence. Carried out under local anaesthetic, the procedure typically takes 30-90 minutes and patients are free to walk out of the clinic anytime from two hours post-operatively.

Cosmetic and aesthetic vein treatments

Thread and spider veins are not just unsightly, they are also the first sign of chronic vein disease and are best dealt with before they develop any further.

• Cosmetic laser treatment of spider and reticular veins
• Cosmetic microsurgical removal of varicose veins (mini phlebectomy)
