Know About
Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA)
Introduction
Varicose veins are more than just a cosmetic concern – they can cause pain, swelling, skin discoloration, and even ulcers if left untreated. At The Vein Center, we specialize in Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA), a modern, minimally invasive treatment that provides quick relief, fast recovery, and long-lasting results.
Whether you are in Mumbai, India, or Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, or any other African countries, our experienced team led by Dr. Saurabh Joshi uses the latest EVLA technology to help patients walk out pain-free and return to their normal lives without long hospital stays.
What is EVLA?
EVLA is a day-care procedure that uses laser energy to close faulty veins. A thin laser fiber is inserted into the affected vein under ultrasound guidance, and the laser heat seals the vein shut. The blood then naturally reroutes to healthy veins, improving circulation and reducing symptoms.
From early days of traditional vein stripping to modern Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA / EVLT) and now the revolutionary VenaSeal™ Closure System, our commitment to innovation ensures you receive the safest, most effective, and least invasive solutions available.
This treatment has revolutionized varicose vein care by eliminating the need for traditional open surgery and offering:
- Mild discomfort
- No large cuts or stitches
- Quick recovery time
- Excellent cosmetic results
EVLA is currently available in both of our Indian and Tanzanian Clinics. Book Appointment Today
Who Can Benefit from EVLA?
You may be a good candidate for EVLA if you experience:
- Bulging, twisted veins in your legs
- Leg heaviness, pain, or cramping
- Swelling in ankles or calves
- Skin changes or discoloration
- Non-healing venous ulcers
EVLA is effective for all stages of varicose veins, from mild cosmetic cases to severe, ulcer-forming vein disease.
Minimally Invasive and FDA approved treatment for Varicose veins and Venous Ulcers.
