What is Stab Phlebectomy?

Stab phlebectomy is a minimally invasive procedure used to physically remove surface varicose veins that are prominent or bulging. The procedure involves making very small skin punctures through which the affected veins are gently extracted using specialised instruments.

This method is commonly used for veins that are close to the skin and cannot be effectively treated with ablation alone. Stab phlebectomy is often performed alongside other vein procedures to improve overall results. As the incisions are extremely small, they usually heal without stitches and leave minimal marks

Stab phlebectomy, also known as microphlebectomy, is a minimally invasive procedure, highly effective for removing large, bulging varicose veins situated close to the skin's surface. Performed under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort, the technique involves making tiny, slit-like micro-incisions, often as small as a freckle through which a specialized phlebectomy hook is used to gently grasp and extract the diseased vein segment by segment. Because the punctures are so minimal, they typically do not require stitches, resulting in virtually no scarring and an excellent cosmetic outcome. The procedure is safely completed in an outpatient setting, allowing patients to walk immediately afterward and quickly return to their normal daily activities with minimal downtime.
