Patient LoginPhlebectomy
Tiny punctures remove surface varicose veins for reliable, long-lasting vein freedom — minimal discomfort, zero downtime.
What it is
Ambulatory phlebectomy removes surface varicose veins through a series of tiny incisions in the skin. It is especially effective for larger veins close to the surface, relieving discomfort and improving the appearance of the legs in a single, minimally invasive procedure.
The treatment is performed under local anaesthesia, so most patients feel only a mild sensation. Incisions are kept as small as possible to minimise scarring, and many patients resume light activity within a day or two.
Frequently asked questions
Will the procedure hurt?
You are numbed with local anaesthesia during treatment. Some soreness around the incision sites afterward is normal and usually managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
What is recovery like?
Many patients return to light activities within a day or two; strenuous activity may be limited for a few weeks. We provide personalised recovery guidance.
Are there any risks?
Phlebectomy is generally safe. Minor bleeding, bruising or, rarely, infection can occur — careful technique and aftercare keep these to a minimum.
Will it leave scars?
Incisions are tiny and made as small as possible, so any marks usually fade and become hard to see over time.
