"r quality of life scores in the post-operative period. EVLA has been shown to correct or significantly improve hemodynamic abnormality in patients with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) with superficial venous reflux. Early reports suggest that endovenous ablation techniques, in contrast to surgical stripping, are associated with a low incidence of neovascularization. A variety of wavelengths are being used to perform EVLA. While the initial chromophore is water or hemoglobin, depending on the wavelength used, carbon appears to be a secondary but key chromophore that is probably independen"
