June 4, 2010 - PRLog -- Jena/Germany - The temperatures are rising and you want to get your summer clothes out of the wardrobe finally again. And there’s no hiding those varicose veins anymore. Up to 40% of all women and 20% of men suffer from venous disorders. And diseased veins are not just a cosmetic problem. Left untreated they lead to chronic venous insufficiency; in the worst case to painful skin ulcers (‘ulcerated leg’).

Another reason not to delay treatment: With the minimally invasive ELVeS® PainLess laser treatment the causes of the disease are treated and the varicose veins are gently and painlessly removed without leaving scars – very simple on an outpatient basis in just 30 to 45 minutes. After that, the patient can quickly return to normal activities. The method was developed based on the most frequently used laser system worldwide for the treatment of venous insufficiency, ELVeS®.

In the clinically tested and standardized procedure the ELVeS® RADIAL laser probe is introduced, through a small insertion site, directly into the vein to be treated and photothermically sealing the varicose expanded vein.

The specific laser wavelength of the ELVeS® PainLess and the world’s first radially (360°) emitting laser fiber, ELVeS® RADIAL, form the basis for excellent clinical and cosmetic results, as well as maximum patient comfort. There is no postoperative pain, swelling or bruising, as well as no protracted recovery period, as is the case with stripping, where the veins are pulled out completely.


Interested patients can find information about the gentle treatment method on the website at http://www.painlessveins.com. Information about varicose veins generally, diagnosis and various treatment possibilities are provided, and frequently asked questions about ELVeS® PainLess are answered, as well as assistance given for deciding whether a visit to the doctor is required. Anyone interested can download a brochure on the subject or complete a form to request information as well as contact data regarding the doctors near them who use the laser treatment. Patients can also visualize how the procedure progresses by watching a video animation.
