Laser treatment for varicose veins
Part of Heart & circulation clinical trials.
This study looks at how well laser treatment works for varicose veins and how satisfied patients are with it. It aims to see if this treatment is safe and effective for people with common or recurring varicose veins.

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.
This trial tests a minimally invasive laser treatment for varicose veins in the legs, specifically those caused by a faulty vein (the great saphenous vein). It uses heat from a laser to close the faulty vein, which may reduce pain and improve appearance compared to other treatments.
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 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 compares two ways to treat varicose veins: doing a heat-based treatment (radiofrequency ablation) on the main thigh vein at the same time as treating the smaller branch veins, or treating the branch veins later. It aims to find which approach works better and is safer for people with mild to moderate varicose veins.
