Fine surface patternSpider veins
Small red, purple or blue lines close to the skin. They may be mainly cosmetic, but an assessment can help when discomfort or larger veins are also present.

Understanding the condition
What are varicose veins?
Leg veins carry blood back towards the heart. Small one-way valves inside them normally close between heartbeats to help prevent blood from slipping backwards.
When a valve becomes weak or does not close properly, blood can flow backwards and collect in the vein. This is called venous reflux. The extra pressure may make a surface vein enlarged, twisted or bulging.
Healthy valveSupports upward blood flow
Weakened valveAllows backward flow and pooling
Why a Doppler matters: the most visible vein is not always the source. Vein mapping shows where reflux begins and supports a treatment plan based on the affected pathway.
Symptoms checklist
When a varicose veins evaluation may be useful
- ✓Rope-like, enlarged or twisted veins
- ✓Leg heaviness or aching after standing
- ✓Ankle or lower-leg swelling
- ✓Night cramps, itching or a burning sensation
- ✓Skin colour or texture changes near the ankle
- ✓Veins or symptoms that keep returning
Types and visible patterns
Not every visible vein is the same
Size and appearance offer useful clues, but treatment is selected only after the vein pathway, symptoms and Doppler findings are understood.
Fine surface pattern
Feeder veinsReticular veins
Blue-green veins that sit below the skin and may feed clusters of smaller surface veins. Doppler findings help show whether deeper reflux is involved.
Bulging vein patternTruncal varicose veins
Larger, twisted or rope-like veins linked to faulty valves in a main superficial vein. Laser or radiofrequency treatment may be considered when suitable.
Long-standing circulation changesChronic venous insufficiency signs
Persistent swelling, skin darkening, thickening or a recurring wound near the ankle can be associated with more advanced venous disease and needs clinical evaluation.
Venous Doppler mappingNon-invasive evaluation before treatment planning
Clinical evaluation
The scan helps locate where vein reflux begins
A venous Doppler ultrasound shows blood-flow direction, valve function and the vein segments involved. It supports a treatment plan based on anatomy rather than appearance alone.
Maps affected veinsShows the course, size and connections of the veins being assessed.
Checks valve refluxHelps identify backward flow and its likely source.
Guides the methodSupports the choice of laser, radiofrequency, sclerotherapy or adjunct care.
Clarifies the estimateAllows the hospital team to explain the expected treatment and per-leg cost.
Treatment options
Modern options selected for the vein pattern
More than one method may be used when different vein sizes or branches are involved. The recommendation follows examination and Doppler mapping.
Catheter-based laser optionEndovenous laser treatment
A thin catheter is guided into the affected vein and laser energy is used to close it. Blood then continues through healthier veins.
Often considered for reflux in a suitable main superficial vein after Doppler mapping.
Controlled thermal optionRadiofrequency ablation
Radiofrequency energy is delivered inside the vein to close a suitable segment. The choice between laser and radiofrequency depends on anatomy and scan findings.
May be considered when vein size, course and access are appropriate.
Injection-based optionSclerotherapy
A sclerosant is injected into selected veins so they gradually close. It may be used for smaller veins or as part of a combined treatment plan.
Commonly considered for selected spider, reticular or residual veins.
Targeted vein removalMicrophlebectomy or adjunct care
Selected surface veins may be removed through tiny openings or managed with another adjunct procedure when one method alone is not the best fit.
Used selectively for visible branch veins based on clinical assessment.
Compression stockings, movement advice and follow-up may also form part of the care plan. They can support symptoms and recovery but may not correct an underlying refluxing vein on their own.
What happens next
A clear pathway from evaluation to review
Each stage answers a practical question before the procedure is planned.
Consultation
Symptoms, health history, visible veins, pulses and circulation are reviewed.
Venous Doppler
The scan maps vein flow and shows where backward flow or reflux begins.
Treatment and cost plan
The suitable method, expected schedule, per-leg estimate and insurance process are explained.
Procedure and review
Hospital-based treatment is followed by activity advice and scheduled review.
Transparent starting price
Laser varicose veins treatment from ₹45,000 per leg
The final estimate can vary with the vein segments involved, Doppler findings, selected technique, hospital requirements and insurance coverage. The plan is explained after evaluation.
All health insurances acceptedCoverage is subject to policy terms, medical eligibility and insurer approval.
After treatment
Recovery guidance built around the procedure
Many minimally invasive varicose veins procedures are planned as day-care treatment for suitable patients. Light walking is commonly encouraged, while work, exercise and travel advice is personalised.
- Walking and activity guidance based on the procedure
- Compression stocking advice when recommended
- Scheduled review based on the treatment plan
- Hospital support if recovery concerns arise

Common questions
Varicose veins treatment FAQs
Practical information about treatment choices, cost, insurance, Doppler evaluation and recovery in Kukatpally.
What is the cost of laser varicose veins treatment in Kukatpally?
At Sudershan Hospital, laser varicose veins treatment starts from ₹45,000 per leg. The final cost depends on the affected veins, Doppler findings, selected treatment method, hospital requirements and insurance eligibility.
Is ₹45,000 the cost for both legs?
No. The starting price is ₹45,000 per leg. When both legs require treatment, the vascular surgeon prepares a plan after examination and a venous Doppler scan.
Does Sudershan Hospital accept insurance for varicose veins treatment?
All health insurance plans are accepted. Coverage and cashless approval depend on the policy, medical indication, waiting periods and insurer authorization. The hospital team can help check the required documents.
Do all visible veins require laser treatment?
No. Spider veins, reticular veins and larger varicose veins may require different approaches. Symptoms, the source of reflux and Doppler findings guide the recommendation.
Is laser treatment suitable for every varicose vein patient?
Not always. Suitability depends on vein anatomy, the source of reflux, symptoms, previous treatment and overall health. Clinical evaluation and venous Doppler mapping help determine the appropriate option.
Is hospital admission required?
Many minimally invasive vein procedures can be planned as day-care treatment when clinically suitable. The need for observation or admission varies with the procedure and the patient’s medical condition.
How soon can normal activities be resumed?
Light walking is commonly advised after minimally invasive treatment. Work, exercise and travel guidance varies, so the treating vascular surgeon provides instructions based on the procedure and recovery.
Can varicose veins return after treatment?
Treatment closes or removes targeted abnormal veins, but new vein problems can develop over time. Follow-up, movement, weight management and compression advice may help support long-term vein care.
