Varicose Vein Surgery (Phlebectomy / Ligation & Stripping)

Varicose vein surgery is a well-established treatment used to remove or treat enlarged, twisted veins that commonly occur in the legs due to venous insufficiency. While minimally invasive treatments such as laser therapy are widely used, surgical options remain important for patients with extensive or complex vein conditions. At International Modern Hospital, Dubai, varicose vein surgery is performed using modern techniques to ensure safe and effective outcomes.

Varicose veins develop when the valves within veins fail to function properly, allowing blood to pool and veins to enlarge. Over time, this can lead to symptoms such as leg heaviness, swelling, aching, and visible bulging veins. In advanced cases, patients may experience skin changes or ulcers. Surgical treatment aims to remove or redirect affected veins to restore proper circulation.

The procedure may involve techniques such as phlebectomy, where small incisions are made to remove affected veins, or ligation and stripping, where the problematic vein is tied off and removed. These techniques are chosen based on the severity and location of the condition, as well as the patient’s overall health.

At International Modern Hospital, patients undergo a thorough evaluation to determine the most appropriate treatment plan. Advanced imaging is used to assess venous function and guide surgical decisions. The vascular team ensures that each procedure is tailored to achieve optimal results with minimal discomfort.

Recovery following varicose vein surgery varies depending on the extent of the procedure. Patients are encouraged to remain active and follow post-operative guidelines to support healing and improve circulation. Long-term outcomes are generally positive, with significant improvement in symptoms and quality of life.

Varicose vein surgery remains an effective solution for managing advanced venous conditions. At International Modern Hospital, Dubai, patients benefit from expert care, advanced techniques, and a patient-centered approach that ensures both functional and cosmetic improvement.
