Find a Doctor for Endovenous Laser Treatment (ELT)

Endovenous Laser Treatment (ELT) is a minimally invasive treatment required to eliminate defective superficial veins (varicose veins) and an alternative to vein stripping.

A vascular surgeon uses an optical fiber inserted into the vein to deliver laser energy to shrink and contract the vein. The optical fiber is guided using ultrasound to ensure the treatment is administered effectively. The treatment, which is performed without sedation, usually takes between 1 and 2 hours and is performed as an outpatient procedure.

ELT is a relatively new procedure, but is becoming more popular and widely used because it is quick and efficient alternative to surgery and it has a 95% success rate.
