How can you easily get rid of varicose veins?

There is no reason to continue enduring the pain, discomfort and unsightly disfigurement that is often caused by varicose veins. Many people have put off treatment thinking they would have to face vein stripping, which is major surgery requiring hospitalisation, general anaesthesia and weeks of recovery time.

Now there is no reason to postpone treatment. The CoolTouch CTEV nm offers virtually pain free, quick and highly successful treatment alternative that gets you back to your life in the same day.

Whilst the vein specialists of the Sydney Laser Vein institute can offer different ways to treat varicose veins including sclerotherapy (injecting veins) and surgery, the newest technology offered is endovenous laser. Endovenous laser uses light waves to eliminate varicose veins.

Not all lasers are the same

There are several different endovenous lasers on the market today. The single most critical component that determines the overall success of endovenous laser treatment is the laser's wave length. The CoolTouch CTEV laser as a 1320 nm wavelength, which has been found to be the most comfortable and effective laser treatment for varicose veins.

How does the CoolTouch CTEV laser work?

With the CoolTouch CTEV a small single needle incision is made in the leg and the fibre is inserted into the varicose vein. The laser is activated and as the fibre is moved through the vein, it gently heats and safely closes the vein. Once the vein is closed, the blood that was circulating through this vein is simply re-routed to other healthy veins and the varicose vein essentially vanishes.

A simple outpatient procedure

The CoolTouch CTEV procedure is minimally invasive. You may be awake during the entire procedure but you will not feel any pain as your leg will be numbed using a local anaesthetic and sedation may also be used. The entire procedure will take less than one hour per leg treated.

Cosmetically pleasing results

One of the tremendous benefits of the CoolTouch CTEV procedure is that patients do not experience the incision scars or bruising that are often present with alternative treatments. Rarely does bruising occur when the CoolTouch CTEV procedure is performed alone. And since the incision is so small, no stitches are necessary.

Rapid relief from symptoms

Your symptoms will begin to improve immediately after the CoolTouch CTEV procedure is completed. However, depending upon their severity, some symptoms may take one or two weeks to completely disappear.

Quick return to work and play

After the procedure, your leg will be wrapped in a compression bandage or stocking and you will be up and walking within 30 minutes. You will be able to resume routine activity the same day and athletic or strenuous activities within several days.
