Varicose Veins
Laser Treatment (EVLT)
Endovenous Laser Therapy (EVLT) uses targeted laser energy delivered through a thin fiber to seal off malfunctioning veins from the inside. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia as a daycare treatment, allowing patients to walk out of the clinic the same day with compression stockings. Patients in Bangalore and Bengaluru can consult Dr. Adarsh for expert evaluation and treatment.
About Laser Treatment (EVLT)
Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) is the gold standard minimally invasive procedure for varicose veins. A thin laser fiber is inserted into the diseased vein under ultrasound guidance, and laser energy seals the vein from inside. Dr. Adarsh performs EVLT as a daycare procedure under local anesthesia with immediate walking and return to normal activities.

Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT) — A laser fiber is inserted into the varicose vein to seal it shut, redirecting blood flow to healthy veins.
