Polidocanol Foam With or Without Transdermal Laser in Varicose Veins

The study aims to evaluate whether the association of transdermal Nd:YAG 1064 nm laser with polidocanol foam improves venous occlusion and aesthetic outcomes compared to foam alone. Participants will be adult patients with lower limb varicose veins CEAP 1-3 confirmed by Doppler ultrasound. After randomization (1:1), the control group will receive 0.5% polidocanol foam, while the intervention group will receive 0.25% polidocanol foam followed by transdermal laser application. A second session will be performed only if partial occlusion persists at the 30-day follow-up. Assessments will include venous occlusion at 30, 90 and 180 days after the procedure, pigmentation, pain intensity, number of sessions required, patient satisfaction, and adverse events. Standardized photographs will be taken at baseline, 30, 90 and 180 days.
