 endovenous laser treatment involves having a catheter inserted into your vein and using an ultrasound scan to guide it into the correct position.

A tiny laser is passed through the catheter and positioned at the top of your varicose vein.

The laser delivers short bursts of energy that heat up the vein and seal it closed. The laser is slowly pulled along the vein using the ultrasound scan to guide it, allowing the entire length of the vein to be closed.
