Dr. Navarro describes if endovenous laser therapy will cause scarring.
Dr. Navarro:
No, that’s one of the benefits of this procedure; there are no incisions. Any incision, if you do a mini-phlebectomy at the same time will be about 1/16th to 1/8th of an inch. We haven’t used any stitches, and there’s no scarring.
