What Is Sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure that has been used to treat spider veins and varicose veins since the 1930s. The goal of this treatment is to reduce the appearance of these enlarged or twisted veins by causing them to shrink or disappear completely over time. During the procedure, a doctor will inject a solution called a sclerosant directly into the affected vein. This solution causes the vein walls to become inflamed and stick together, which results in the collapse of the vein, forcing blood to reroute through healthier veins. As time passes, the vein will gradually fade away until it becomes barely noticeable or disappears entirely.

The Benefits Of Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is an incredibly popular treatment for spider veins and varicose veins because of its low risk, minimal discomfort, and impressive results. It also does not require any downtime after treatment; you can resume your regular activities right away without having to worry about any potential side effects or complications. This makes sclerotherapy perfect for people who want to improve their appearance without taking too much time off from work or other daily activities. Furthermore, this treatment does not require any type of surgery, so there’s no need for anesthesia or extensive recovery periods either!

How Does Sclerotherapy Work?

During sclerotherapy treatment, your doctor will inject a solution directly into your affected vein using a very fine needle. This solution causes inflammation within the walls of your vein, triggering them to stick together and eventually collapse over time. The exact amount of time this process takes depends on various factors such as size of each individual’s vessel as well as age of vessel itself; however most patients begin seeing results in just 4-6 weeks after their first treatment session!

What to Expect after Sclerotherapy Treatment?

You'll be able to get up and walk around soon after the procedure. Walking and moving your legs is important to prevent the formation of blood clots. Some people might experience bruising, tenderness or some itchiness around the treated area which is normal. These side effects are usually temporary and should subside over time. It is important to follow all the instructions given by your doctor after treatment in order to maximize your results. Compression stockings may be advised by the doctor and they should be worn as directed for a period of time.
