Sclerotherapyby Medical Aesthetics Specialists

Sclerotherapy is a treatment that removes superficial leg veins such as spider veins. Spider veins and other superficial veins are dilated veins that appear pink, red, purple, or blue in color.

Sclerotherapy involves the injection of dextrose and sodium chloride into the dilated vein, which causes them to scar and close off. Patients average 2-6 treatments in 4-6 week intervals. Those with a history of phlebitis in the legs, diabetes, vascular problems, or ulcers in the leg cannot receive Sclerotherapy treatment.

An initial consultation is required. The number of treatments varies with the type of vein and the number of treatments will be discussed further after a detailed consultation evaluation.
