Not all patients with varicose veins require surgery. Varicose veins are usually treated taking into account conditions such as aesthetic concerns or severity of symptoms. Methods used for the treatment of varicose veins include interventions such as surgery, sclerotherapy, radiofrequency ablation, endovenous laser ablation.

Surgery is usually considered for more advanced varicose veins or in cases that do not respond to other treatments. However, many patients today are offered effective and less invasive treatment options with non-surgical methods. Therefore, if an option for the treatment of varicose veins is being considered, it is important to consult a specialist doctor and assess the situation. Each patient is different and the treatment plan should be determined individually.
