Compare two laser treatments for varicose vein reflux
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a 1940 nm or a 1470 nm laser works better for treating varicose veins in the legs. It may help you find a more effective option to reduce vein problems like swelling, heaviness, and visible bulges.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have varicose veins caused by poor valve function in the great saphenous vein and/or small saphenous vein (the main affected leg veins).
- You are a candidate for endovenous laser treatment in your lower limb (your clinician says laser treatment is appropriate for you).
- Your vein diameter in the treatment area is at least 3 mm.
- Your symptoms match CEAP C2 to C6 (from visible varicose veins up to more advanced skin/tissue changes).
- You can safely take part in follow-up visits (your location allows study follow-up).
- You are not pregnant or breastfeeding, and you can understand and consent to the study (or you are not under legal protection/guardianship that limits consent).

This trial tests different types of laser energy to treat varicose veins. It looks at which wavelength works best for closing the faulty vein and preventing the disease from getting worse.
This study tests a new laser treatment that uses a small vacuum to remove large varicose veins in the legs. It may help people with big, uncomfortable veins that other treatments might not work as well for.
This study tests if adding a laser to a foam treatment (polidocanol) works better for varicose veins than the foam alone. It may help people with small to medium varicose veins that are close to the skin.
This study tests a new technique for treating varicose veins and checks if it improves quality of life and recovery compared to standard care. It is for people with visible or more severe vein problems linked to saphenous vein reflux.
This trial tests whether adding injection therapy right after laser treatment improves outcomes for people with varicose veins in the legs. It may help reduce symptoms like pain, heaviness, or swelling.
This study compares two minimally invasive treatments (radiofrequency ablation and microwave ablation) for varicose veins in the small saphenous vein. If your varicose veins cause symptoms like pain, swelling, or heaviness, this trial may help determine which treatment works better.
