How Sclerotherapy Works
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical treatment. A solution is injected into the affected vein, which collapses and is gradually absorbed by the body. Blood reroutes to healthier veins, and the treated vein fades from view.
Most sessions are done in the office and take under 30 minutes.
Who Is Sclerotherapy For?
- Visible spider veins or blue and purple veins
- Mild aching or heaviness in the legs
- Discomfort from standing for long periods
- Residual veins after previous treatment
- Smaller varicose veins
A diagnostic evaluation confirms whether sclerotherapy is right for you. If another option fits better, we will tell you.
