Varicose Vein Repair at Arnot Health

This outpatient laser treatment for severe varicose veins takes about 45 minutes and has no painful side effects. A local anesthesia is used to numb the area where a thin laser fiber is inserted into the vein. Laser light is emitted at the right wavelength to just the right tissue, causing the incompetent vein to close while your body automatically routes the blood to healthier veins.
