Modern Varicose Vein Treatment in Kharkiv — Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT)
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is a state-of-the-art minimally invasive method for treating varicose vein disease, recognized worldwide as the "gold standard". At the Brigid Medical Center in Kharkiv, the procedure is performed using expert-class equipment. Laser treatment addresses the root cause of the disease: the affected vein is sealed from the inside, and blood flow is redirected through healthy vessels, restoring normal circulation.
Advantages of Laser Varicose Treatment at Brigid Center
Painless and Fast
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia through a single micro-puncture without incisions or scars.
Outpatient Procedure
No hospitalization required — the patient returns to their normal life on the same day.
High Precision
The laser fiber is positioned under continuous ultrasound guidance for maximum safety and accuracy.
Healthy Tissue Preservation
The laser affects only the damaged vein, leaving surrounding tissues and vessels unharmed.
Proven Effectiveness
The success rate of EVLT exceeds 98%, with a minimal risk of recurrence.
Quick Recovery
Patients can walk immediately after the procedure; no long-term rehabilitation is needed.
Who is Laser Vein Treatment Recommended For?
Primary Indications for EVLT:
- Varicose vein disease accompanied by pain, heaviness, swelling, or cramps.
- Incompetence of the great or small saphenous vein valves (venous reflux).
- Bulging varicose veins and nodes visible on the skin surface.
- Early trophic skin changes and chronic venous insufficiency.
- Recurrent varicose veins after previous surgery or sclerotherapy.
- A desire for aesthetic results without scars or hospital stays.
Pre-Procedure Diagnostics
Before scheduling EVLT, a phlebologist must perform a Duplex Ultrasound Scan. This allows for an accurate assessment of the vessels' condition and vein diameter to develop a personalized treatment plan.
How is the EVLT Procedure Performed?
Laser varicose treatment at our center takes 30 to 60 minutes and consists of several stages:
- Mapping: The doctor marks the varicose veins under ultrasound guidance.
- Puncture: A thin laser fiber is inserted into the vein through a tiny puncture.
- Local Anesthesia: A "water cushion" is created around the vein to protect tissues and provide numbing.
- Laser Coagulation: Laser energy securely seals the vein as the fiber is withdrawn.
- Activation: The patient is fitted with a compression stocking and can immediately go for a walk.
Post-Treatment Recommendations
- Compression: Mandatory wearing of medical compression stockings (duration set by the doctor).
- Activity: Daily walking for at least one hour to ensure stable results.
- Restrictions: Avoid hot baths, saunas, and heavy gym workouts for 2 weeks.
- Follow-up: Complimentary check-up and ultrasound one week after the procedure.
