Revolutionizing the Treatment of Varicose Veins: Laser Technology

Varicose veins are common, often painful, and can be hereditary, with a higher risk for women. Traditionally, treatment involved major surgery, but now a minimally invasive laser procedure is available. This new method uses laser energy to close incompetent veins, rerouting blood to healthy veins, and is performed in a doctor's office with minimal recovery time. The laser treatment has transformed varicose vein care, offering a quick and effective solution with rare complications.
