Sclerotherapy Services

Information on Sclerotherapy treatment.

Sclerotherapy treatment is used to thread veins and venous malformations visible superficially under the skin on the legs. A liquid solution is injected very superficially into the blood vessels using an ultra-fine needle to disperse these small vessels.

Sclerotherapy is a very safe and well-established treatment for reducing the appearance of unwanted thread and spider veins. Most people will need 3-4 follow up treatments, however the number of sessions you require may vary, depending on the size or number of areas that need sclerotherapy treatment.

Some side effects that may occur at the site of the injection include:

• Bruising
• Raised red areas
• Small skin sores
• Darkened skin in the form of lines or spots
• Multiple tiny red blood vessels
