Chronic venous disease affects 30 percent of people, after age 60, it affects half of the Western world's population. It is more common in women, in whom the aesthetic aspect of the disease is also more bothersome. However, the aesthetic aspect is far from the only reason why you should decide to take action as soon as possible.
Thanks to advanced treatment techniques, varicose veins are today in many cases manageable health and aesthetic problems. To assess the condition, appropriate therapy, and plan for potential surgery, an ultrasound examination with Doppler blood flow imaging is very important. With it Let's assess the possibility of laser surgery, not all veins are suitable for this type of treatment. The principle of treating chronic venous insufficiency in the lower extremities is based on Exclusion of varicose veins from circulation. Intravenous methods are based on thermal or chemical injury to the venous wall, Due to minimal invasiveness, it allows for outpatient treatment and the procedure under local anesthesia.
Juventina Clinic is the only one in Slovenia that treats varicose veins using efficient and minimally invasive laser simLa 6. Compared to conventional lasers (wavelength 980nm – 1470nm), simLa 6 laser (wavelength 1940nm) offers many advantages:
No special preparation for the operative procedure is required. The patient will receive all necessary instructions before the procedure and will bring with them to the procedure compression sock. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia. After the surgery, the patient can go home.
If an ultrasound has determined that the deep veins are healthy and not leaking, we opt for phlebectomy of the superficial veins. The use of a laser is not necessary here. The procedure is more aesthetic in nature, as it usually involves initial changes and no significant problems or skin changes are present. The procedure slows down the progression of the disease and removes bothersome varicose veins.
