EVLA (endovenous laser ablation) in Soraca Med

Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) at Soraca Med in Antalya, Turkey, is a modern procedure to treat varicose veins. This method uses thermal energy to close problematic veins, providing an affordable alternative with prices roughly 70% lower than in the US or Europe. The clinic holds an International Health Tourism Authorization Certificate from the Turkish government, confirming its status as a licensed medical provider.

The EVLA Treatment Process

EVLA works by using a laser to heat the blood inside a damaged vein. This heat causes the vein walls to collapse and seal shut. Over several weeks, your body naturally absorbs the closed vein. Doctors perform this procedure while you are awake. They use local anesthesia to numb the main leg vein, making the process more comfortable. The treatment usually takes one session per vein.

Recovery and Alternatives

After the laser treatment, the skin over the vein may look red for a short time. This color usually fades within a few weeks as the body heals. Unlike some older methods, this specific laser approach often does not require patients to wear compression stockings. For patients with different needs, the clinic also offers other options:

• Radiofrequency ablation uses radio waves instead of laser heat to close veins.
• Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy involves injecting a special solution to dissolve the vein.
• Exothermic laser therapy is available for smaller spider veins, often requiring three or more sessions.
