EVLT Treatment for Varicose Veins in Mumbai
Advanced Laser Treatment by Dr. Himanshu Shah
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is one of the most advanced and effective treatments for varicose veins. This minimally invasive laser procedure helps close damaged veins, relieve symptoms, and restore healthy blood circulation without the need for traditional surgery.
At Venus 11 Varicose Vein Hospital, EVLT is performed using advanced laser technology under the expert care of Dr. Himanshu Shah. Our hospital in Mumbai provides specialized treatment for patients from across India as well as international patients seeking modern varicose vein care.
What is EVLT (Endovenous Laser Treatment)?
EVLT is a minimally invasive laser procedure used to treat varicose veins by sealing the affected veins from inside. During the procedure, a thin laser fiber is inserted into the damaged vein through a small puncture in the skin.
Laser energy is then delivered inside the vein, causing it to heat up and close. Once the vein is sealed, blood automatically reroutes through healthy veins, improving circulation and reducing symptoms.
The treated vein gradually shrinks and is naturally absorbed by the body over time.
Who Needs EVLT Treatment?
EVLT is recommended for patients experiencing symptoms such as:
- Bulging or twisted veins in the legs
- Leg pain or heaviness
- Swelling in legs or ankles
- Burning or itching around veins
- Night leg cramps
- Skin discoloration around veins
- Non-healing venous ulcers
Early treatment helps prevent complications and improves overall vascular health.
