Your Patient Journey

At Laservein Co, your journey is guided by a Specialist Vascular Surgeon from start to finish, ensuring the highest level of expertise and safety. Unlike clinics that offer limited options, we provide a comprehensive approach—from your first consultation and on-site duplex ultrasound to a personalised treatment plan and follow-up care. You’ll receive a clear explanation of your anatomy, a written summary of options, and an accurate quote before any procedure. Our process prioritises comfort, transparency, and evidence-based care, so you can make informed decisions with confidence. Whether your concern is cosmetic or medical, we tailor your treatment for the best long-term results.

Step 1: Initial Contact

Make an appointment with Laservein Co. A referral from your GP is recommended for sharing health information and claiming a Medicare benefit.

Step 2: First Consultation

Your surgeon will review your health and vein concerns. Most varicose/spider veins are harmless. If symptoms exist (pain, itch, inflammation, clots, ulcers, bleeding), a Doppler Ultrasound is offered (Medicare subsidised). Cosmetic-only concerns are not subsidised.

Step 3: Diagnostic Imaging

A Duplex scan is available immediately with our vascular sonographer. The surgeon explains findings and their significance.

Step 4: Treatment Planning

Discussion of risk-benefit ratio and treatment options. You receive a map of your vein anatomy, a written explanation of options, and an accurate quote.

Step 5: Decision & Timeline

If urgent, treatment is prioritised. Otherwise, you can proceed immediately or take time to consider. Typical journey: 6–12 months (treatment + follow-up).

FAQs

Is laser better than surgery for varicose veins?

For most patients, yes—EVLA offers similar effectiveness with faster recovery and less discomfort. Very large or tortuous veins may be better served by surgery. A duplex ultrasound confirms the best choice.

How long will I be off work?

After laser: typically 1–4 days. After surgery: typically 3–17 days, depending on your role and vein anatomy.

Do compression stockings cure varicose veins?

No. They can relieve symptoms but do not prevent or cure varicose veins.
