How soon can I fly after endovenous laser therapy?
Short flights should be avoided for the first 2 weeks after EVLT, as flying can slightly increase the risk of blood clots while your vein is healing. Longer flights are generally discouraged for up to 6 weeks. If you’re planning a holiday or travelling from overseas for treatment, it’s important to discuss this with your consultant in advance. They can help plan the timing of your procedure, advise on safe return travel, and arrange appropriate follow-up, so your treatment fits safely around your travel plans.
