Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA), also called EVLT, is a modern, minimally invasive treatment for varicose veins. Instead of surgically removing the vein, a thin laser fibre is passed inside the faulty vein and gentle laser energy seals it shut. Blood is then naturally redirected to healthy veins. At Vericure Clinic, Dr. Vishal Jindal performs EVLA with no cuts, no stitches, and same-day discharge, so most patients walk out and return to normal life quickly.
How EVLA Works
Under ultrasound guidance and local anaesthesia, a laser fibre closes the diseased vein from the inside.
- No Cuts or Stitches
- Local Anaesthesia
Ideal Candidates
EVLA is highly effective for larger varicose veins, leg pain, heaviness, swelling and long-standing symptoms.
- Large Varicose Veins

Why Choose This Treatment
EVLA is considered the gold standard for treating varicose veins because it is safe, effective and offers a much faster recovery than traditional open surgery, with excellent long-term results.
Minimally Invasive
A tiny puncture replaces surgical cuts, meaning minimal scarring and discomfort.
Walk Immediately
Most patients walk right after the procedure and go home the same day.

Frequently asked questions
No. It is done under local anaesthesia and is virtually painless. Most patients feel only minor pressure during the procedure.
Almost immediately. Walking is actually encouraged right after treatment, and most patients resume daily activities the same day.
Because the faulty vein is sealed at the root, recurrence at the treated vein is very low when after-care advice is followed.
EVLA usually takes about 45 minutes to an hour per leg, depending on the number and size of veins treated.
No stitches are needed. Only a tiny needle puncture is used, so there are no surgical cuts and minimal to no scarring.
