SCLEROTHERAPY
Sclerotherapy is an effective treatment for reducing the appearance of spider and varicose veins, improving both cosmetic appearance and comfort.
More Information:
Sclerotherapy involves the injection of a special solution into problematic veins, causing them to collapse and fade over time. It is a safe and minimally invasive way to treat unsightly veins and relieve discomfort associated with them.
How It Works
A solution is injected into the affected veins, which irritates the vein walls and causes them to collapse. Over time, the veins are reabsorbed by the body, and blood is redirected to healthier veins.
Areas Treated
Common areas include the legs and thighs, though it can also be applied to smaller veins in other areas of the body.
Results and Longevity
Results are noticeable within a few weeks of treatment, with full effects visible in 4-6 weeks. Depending on the size of the veins, multiple sessions may be needed.
The Procedure
The session lasts around 30-60 minutes. A fine needle is used to inject the solution into the targeted veins. Discomfort is minimal, and no anesthesia is required.
Post-Treatment Care
Avoid strenuous activities and hot baths for the first 24 hours post-treatment. Compression stockings may be recommended to help with circulation.
