Laser treatment for varicose veins is generally effective in closing the affected veins and can provide long-term relief. Success rates are high, but some veins may recur, and the procedure carries minor risks such as bruising, pain, or nerve irritation. Please consult a vascular specialist to assess your veins and determine whether laser therapy is suitable for you.
