About Varicose Veins Surgery
What are Varicose Veins?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that commonly appear in the legs due to weakened or damaged valves. This causes blood to pool, resulting in swollen, painful veins. Symptoms include leg heaviness, aching, swelling, skin discoloration, and in severe cases, ulcers. Treatment is necessary when conservative measures fail.
Traditional vs Minimally Invasive Options
Traditional Vein Stripping/Ligation: Surgical removal or tying off of large problematic veins through incisions. Used for advanced varicose veins. Recovery: 6-8 weeks.
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT): Minimally invasive laser procedure. Laser fiber inserted through tiny puncture to seal vein from inside. Performed under local anesthesia. Procedure duration: 60-90 minutes. Same-day discharge. Cost in India: ₹50,000-₹1,50,000 ($600-$1,800).
Sclerotherapy: Injection-based treatment for smaller veins. Cost: ₹4,000-₹10,000 per session ($50-$120).
Other Options: Radiofrequency ablation, VenaSeal closure, and foam sclerotherapy also available.
