Phlebectomy was once considered as the gold standard for varicose vein removal. And now it’s scary to even imagine that in order to treat varicose veins, you will have to prepare for an operation where the surgeon makes incisions in the skin to remove unnecessary veins by tearing them out.
Sounds like something from the past, doesn’t it? But it isn’t the main reason why phlebectomy is used less.
Phlebectomy, like any surgical intervention, is associated with the risk of complications such as infections, blood clots and persistent scars.
In addition, recovery from this procedure requires a significant amount of time: patients have to wear compression underwear and limit physical activity. After the operation, visible scars remain on the skin, which can cause aesthetic problems.
With the development of medical technology, non-surgical methods have appeared that provide high efficiency, minimal trauma and quick recovery.
Dr. Popovtsev’s Phlebology Clinic Dubai offers innovative solutions, such as endovascular laser coagulation Dubai, which effectively treats varicose veins in just 1 hour.
What are modern varicose vein treatment methods based on and how do they work?
1. Sclerotherapy
A minimally invasive procedure where a sclerosant is injected into the affected veins. This solution causes a chemical reaction and, as a result, the veins close and dissolve over time.
The procedure is performed on an outpatient basis, doesn’t require anesthesia and allows patients to return to normal life almost immediately. Sclerotherapy is especially effective for the treatment of small and medium varicose veins.
2. Endovenous laser coagulation (EVLC)
Here, laser action is used to close diseased veins from the inside. Laser light, supplied through a thin catheter, heats the walls of the vein, it leads to their coagulation and subsequent closure. EVLK Dubai is one of the most effective and modern procedures for treating varicose veins, providing quick results and a minimal recovery period. The procedure usually takes about an hour and is performed under local anesthesia.
3. Miniphlebectomy
Miniphlebectomy is a less invasive version of traditional phlebectomy. This procedure removes varicose veins through small incisions which do not require sutures. It is used only on small superficial veins — and even then quite rarely.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and does not require recovery.
