Varicose Vein Treatment with Endovenous Laser Ablation
Chronic Vein Disorders (CVDs) are common problems caused by venous hypertension, most often in the legs. There are many different options for treatments of this type of disorder. Treatment options include conservative management approaches or total elimination of these dysfunctional vein pathways with endovenous (inside the vein) techniques or surgery.
You can see here what an issue with varicose veins looks like before treatment by Endovenous Laser Ablation. If your veins look similar, you should get in touch with Chicago Vein Institute to seek treatment.

What is Endovenous Laser Ablation
EVLA™ is a minimally invasive, FDA approved treatment for insufficient varicose veins. Under local anesthesia and with the assistance of ultrasound, a laser catheter is inserted into the saphenous vein through a tiny (1-2 mm) opening. The laser is slowly heated and seals the damaged vein as the catheter is withdrawn. The procedure takes about 45 minutes and leaves no visible scars. Chicago Vein Institute performs over 1,000
Some of the benefits of Endovenous Laser Ablation (EVLA) include:
- No downtime
- No scarring
- Yields immediate results
- Can be done on all skin types
- Performed in the doctor’s office
- Minimal postoperative pain and discomfort

Chicago Vein Institute is the very best at what they do. I’ve gone to them in the past, then I tried other service providers in the same field just to see if they were better. None of them came close and I can say very confidently that I’ll never go to any other clinic again! They’re THE THE VERY... BESTread more

Chicago Vein Institute is the place to go to change your life around! I knew my veins in legs were not good but didn't know how bad until the Chicago Vein Institute evaluated them and successfully treated them. I feel like I have new legs again, thanks to the Chicago Vein Institute. The doctors... and staff educated me about vein disease, very professional, nice and invested in patients' success. Best investment of time, money and energy for one's future.read more

If you suffer from rhoids (you know what I’m talking about!) just come here. They treat them with infrared laser to reduce the swelling and it helps tremendously. It’s a quick procedure and you’ll be feeling better soon after. Don’t walk around in silence. Yes it’s awkward but it’s better than... being in pain! I hope my review helps someone. I didn’t see any other reviews about them so thought I would help others out there. They do get busy so keep that in mind. Appointments are not always immediate. They were nice enough to squeeze me in one day on the same day basis because I was in so much pain. I’m very grateful for them.read more

Dr. Sunje and his staff: Sandy/Vanessa- Receptionists; Cece, Paul, Madeline, Jackie, Vanessa, Joanna and Gabriela, are professional at what they do, respectively, yet personal in caring about my well being throughout the process. Each time I went, regardless of who was assisting with my outpatient... procedures, they were in tuned to making sure I was taken care of. Dr. Sunje called me on a Saturday to see how I was doing from an outpatient procedure I had completed the previous day. I look forward to my visits knowing that the best outcome will be achieved with Dr. Sunje and his staff.read more

This is the best vein clinic I have been to. Staff is very friendly and pleasant and Dr. Sunje gives you his undivided attention. I went for spider vein sclerotherapy on my legs and they did not only do an excellent job removing spider veins but also walked me through the steps of the procedure and... did a quick ultrasound to determine and explain the underlaying causes of my spider veins. I highly recommend this clinic to anyone with vein-related concerns on their legs.read more

I had my first laser hair removal treatment a few weeks ago with Shari. From the moment I walked in she (and the entire staff) made me feel completely at ease with her professional, polite demeanor and her extensive knowledge of the process. I was nervous to say the least. I had heard procedures... like this could be painful, but she did absolutely everything she could to make me feel comfortable and confident in the process.I still have 5 more sessions to go but Im still completely amazed at the progress they already made in one treatment. Shari took the process from something I had great anxiety about, to something I am actually looking forward to.Most of all I was impressed with her immediate email followup when I arrived home. You just don't see things like that too often. She seemed genuinely interested in how I was feeling and my experience overall. She took the time to answer all of my followup questions also which was beyond refreshing. I am so thankful there are professionals out there that take their job seriously and consider the patients feelings in everything they do.I would definitely refer them to all of my friends!read more

I highly recommend the Chicago Vein Institute! They made me feel so comfortable with their welcoming staff and incredibly knowledgeable assistants and doctors. Dr. Sunje is the best in his field and I feel so very fortunate to have been treated by him and his staff. Besides being a perfectionist... at what he does, he is also warm, welcoming and thoughtful! The two procedures I had were endovenous laser ablation and sclerotherapy. I walked away from each procedure with little to no discomfort. I followed all the pre-and post care instructions and so I am healing very well. I honestly cannot thank the staff and doctors enough for making this experience as easy as they did.

I can't thank the entire staff enough for everything. I had two pregnancies in my early 20's back to back and developed varicose veins. I was extremely insecure and in severe pain. I tried everything to cover it up with make-up, airbrush, and tanning. I tried just about every home remedy nothing... worked. I am so grateful to Cici for making me feel confident she is so great at what she does. And to Dr. Sunje for relieving me from the pain. I can have my kids sit on my lap now with no pain or discomfort at all. My legs feel and look so much better. Everyone works so hard to make you feel comfortable.

My enormous "THANK YOU" TO DR SUNJE who helped me to avoid a surgery that i had always thought was the only solution in my case.I was suffering from internal hemorrhoid for more than a year. An attempt to heal it out myself with the help of ointments led me to a shameful failure. The overuse of... hydrocortisone creams for a long period of time resulted in worsening of my condition dramatically.Fortunately, i got into good hands. Besides the progressive healing results of my "big time problem" i've experienced a warm atmosphere of clinic staff, an outstanding professionalism and humanistic attitude of Dr Mensur O Sunje,It's worthless to suffer from an issue than can be taken care of promptly with successful results!!!!!!THANK YOU VERY MUCHread more
