What Is EVLT/EVLA?
Restore Healthy Circulation in Diseased Leg Veins
Endovenous laser treatment, also known as EVLT or EVLA, is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat larger varicose veins caused by venous reflux. EVLT/EVLA in Long Island, NY, works by delivering controlled laser energy through a thin catheter placed inside the diseased vein. The laser heat gently seals the vein closed, redirecting blood flow to healthier veins and relieving symptoms such as leg pain, heaviness, swelling, and fatigue, without surgery.

What to Expect During EVLT/EVLA
During your EVLT/EVLA procedure, Dr. Rovner begins by numbing the treatment area to keep you comfortable. Using ultrasound guidance, he inserts a thin catheter into the affected vein and delivers controlled laser energy along its length. You may feel gentle pressure or warmth as the vein seals closed. The procedure is performed in-office and typically takes under an hour. After treatment, you can walk immediately and must wear a compression stocking.
What Is Recovery Like After EVLT/EVLA?
Recovery after EVLT/EVLA is typically quick. You’ll be encouraged to walk immediately after your procedure to support healthy blood circulation. Most patients can return to work and daily activities the same day or the next. You may experience mild tenderness, tightness, or bruising along the treated vein, but these side effects usually resolve within a few hours or days. Dr. Rovner provides clear aftercare instructions to ensure your recovery is comfortable.
Are the Results of EVLT/EVLA Permanent?
The treated vein is permanently closed and will not reopen. However, vein disease is a progressive condition, which means new varicose veins can develop over time. Ongoing follow-up and vein health monitoring at Core Alliance helps maintain long-term results.
