What is Sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure in which a fine needle is carefully inserted directly into the targeted veins, followed by an injection of a medical solution. This procedure triggers the varicose veins to naturally close, rerouting blood to nearby, deeper veins and gradually diminishing the appearance of the varicose veins.


While sclerotherapy is often pursued for its cosmetic reasons, effectively reducing the visibility of spider and varicose veins, it also offers the added advantage of alleviating physical discomfort.


The Transformation


After sclerotherapy, you can expect to notice results for spider veins within three to six weeks. It may take several months for larger veins to dissolve and completely vanish. In most cases, multiple sessions spaced weeks apart yield the best results.


Following the procedure, we encourage patients to promptly return to their regular activities, with a special emphasis on walking. To promote effective vessel compression, we also recommend the use of support hosiery or socks.

Target Areas

Sclerotherapy treats both unwanted spider veins and spider veins in various areas of the body, including:

THIGHS

Sclerotherapy can be used to target spider veins and varicose veins that appear on the thighs. This can help achieve a smoother and more even skin on the upper legs.

CALVES

Vein problems often extend to the calves, where sclerotherapy can effectively eliminate visible veins, contributing to a more aesthetically pleasing lower leg appearance.

ANKLES AND FEET

Spider veins and varicose veins around the ankle area can be treated with sclerotherapy. In some cases, spider veins or smaller veins can be present on the feet. Sclerotherapy can address these veins to create a more uniform appearance.

FACE

While sclerotherapy is primarily associated with leg veins, it can also be used on the face, particularly to treat small facial spider veins or broken capillaries, enhancing facial skin's overall appearance.

HANDS

Similarly, sclerotherapy can be used on the hands to address visible veins and improve the look of aging or prominent hand veins.

CHEST AND TORSO

In rare cases, sclerotherapy may be used to treat spider veins or small varicose veins on the chest or torso. However, the treatment is more commonly associated with lower extremity veins.

Frequently Asked Questions?

  • Is sclerotherapy purely a cosmetic procedure, or does it have medical benefits as well?

    While sclerotherapy is often sought for its cosmetic benefits in reducing the appearance of unwanted veins, it also offers the medical advantage of relieving physical discomfort associated with varicose veins. Many individuals experience relief from symptoms such as aching, swelling, and burning after undergoing sclerotherapy.

  • How long does it take to see results after sclerotherapy?

    Results from sclerotherapy can vary depending on the size and type of veins being treated. Typically, patients can expect to notice improvements in the appearance of spider veins within three to six weeks. Larger veins may take several months to dissolve and vanish completely. Multiple treatment sessions, spaced weeks apart, are often recommended for optimal results.

  • Is there any downtime or recovery period after sclerotherapy?

    One of the benefits of sclerotherapy is that it involves minimal downtime. Patients can usually return to their regular activities shortly after the procedure. However, it's essential to follow post-treatment instructions provided by your provider, which may include walking and the use of support hosiery or socks to promote effective vessel compression.


  • Does sclerotherapy cause any discomfort during the procedure?

    Most individuals report only minimal and temporary discomfort during the sclerotherapy procedure. You may feel a slight stinging or burning sensation when the medical solution is injected into the veins, but this discomfort typically subsides quickly.


  • How safe is sclerotherapy as a treatment option?

    Sclerotherapy is considered a low-risk procedure when performed by skilled and experienced professionals. Serious complications are rare, and the treatment has a proven track record of success in reducing and eliminating varicose and spider veins.


  • Are the results of sclerotherapy permanent?

    While the results of sclerotherapy can be long-lasting, it's important to note that new veins may develop over time. Most of the treated veins are unlikely to return, but it's possible for new veins to appear in the future. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and following your provider's recommendations can help prolong the results.

  • Who should use sclerotherapy?

    Ideal candidates for sclerotherapy are individuals looking to improve the appearance of spider and varicose veins and those experiencing physical discomfort due to these veins. Sclerotherapy is generally safe for various skin types and tones. A consultation with a qualified provider will determine if you are a suitable candidate based on your specific concerns and goals.
