Is varicose veins of lower limbs an open operation or a minimally invasive operation?

Hello, the traditional operation is cheaper and the technology is more mature. However, if the great saphenous vein ligation and stripping are used, people with large wounds, much bleeding and scar constitution will leave scars after operation, and their aesthetics will be low. This operation can only deal with blood vessels with a diameter of 1cm, but smaller blood vessels can't, and the recurrence rate is relatively high. It is recommended to adopt minimally invasive treatment, which is more beautiful, with small incision and less bleeding.
