Vein Ligation And Stripping Los Angeles

Vein ligation and stripping is used to remove varicose veins when other procedures are not recommended. This minor surgical procedure involves either removing diseased veins from the leg entirely (stripping), or simply tying them off so that blood no longer can pool inside the vein (ligation). These procedures are usually performed by Dr. Ebrahimi at our Incredible Veins Center under a local anesthetic, and take around two or three hours to complete. Patients experience little or no discomfort during the procedure and recovery afterward is minimal. Most patients return to work or normal activities within a few days after treatment.

About Vein Ligation And Stripping

During the vein ligation and stripping procedure, Dr. Ebrahimi makes very small incisions in the leg below the diseased vein. A tiny tool is inserted through the incision that grips the vein so it can be carefully removed or tied off. Blood flow is rerouted in the area through the healthy veins that are left. For patients who are not good candidates for other vein removal procedures, ligation and stripping can be an effective way to say goodbye to unsightly bulging, twisting veins for good.

    Dear Dr. Ebrahimi,For many years, I was hesitant to have surgery for my varicose veins. My previous doctor have explained to me the stripping procedure which required several days of staying in the hospital and associated significant pain and most importantly my inability to go back to work. After my recent referral from my family physician to see you, I learned about the very simple in office walk-in procedure that uses laser to close my abnormal veins. After having the procedure done by you which took just under 30 minutes …

    I had longstanding varicose veins but was not aware that the problems I had in my legs were related to the varicose vein problem. I did not suffer any leg pain, so I didn’t seek treatment until I was referred to Dr. Ebrahimi by my primary care doctor for an evaluation. He explained that swelling of the ankles and tired feelings in the legs were the result of varicose veins disease. He explained the laser surgery that was done just over 30 minutes in the office. The results were so …

    What Our Customers Say

    Prior to meeting with Dr Ebrahimi, I was suffering severe pain and difficulty walking long distances. With his excellent bedside manner, Dr Ebrahimi thoroughly explained the laser procedure in such detail and easy to understand language. This significantly put me at ease and gave me a complete confidence to undergo Laser vein procedure. This was performed in the office, under local anesthetics with minimal or any discomfort, and the whole procedure only took 25 minutes. Since my laser vein procedure, my pain is totally gone! Thanks Dr. Ebrahimi for excellent …
