Treatment: Ambulatory Phlebectomy

This is a minimally invasive surgical technique used to treat mid-size varicose veins, which are too small for EVAT. The abnormal vein is removed through a tiny incision or incisions using a special set of tools. The procedure is done under local anesthesia, and typically takes under an hour. Recovery is rapid, and most patients do not need to interrupt regular activity after ambulatory phlebectomy.
