How effective is laser treatment for varicose veins in the long term?

Laser treatment for varicose veins, particularly Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA), is highly effective, with success rates often exceeding 90%. Most patients experience significant relief from symptoms such as pain, swelling, and leg heaviness, as well as noticeable cosmetic improvements.

The treated veins typically collapse and are absorbed by the body over several weeks to months, leading to a lasting reduction in varicose veins. However, the long-term effectiveness can vary depending on individual factors, such as the severity of the venous disease, lifestyle factors, and adherence to post-procedure care. While the specific treated veins are unlikely to re-open, new varicose veins can develop over time, particularly in individuals with underlying venous insufficiency.

Regular follow-up visits and ongoing management of risk factors, such as maintaining a healthy weight, exercising regularly, and wearing compression stockings, can help prolong the benefits of laser treatment and prevent the recurrence of varicose veins.
