Sclerotherapy Q&A
What is sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a nonsurgical treatment for spider and varicose veins. It’s the leading therapy for eliminating spider veins, and your provider at Mission Surgical Clinic can carry out the procedure in the office in under 30 minutes.
Sclerotherapy involves a series of small injections into the affected veins. These injections contain a substance called a sclerosant that causes your veins to collapse, which means blood can’t flow through them anymore. As a result, the spider or varicose veins shrivel and die. Your body then absorbs the dead tissue, and the veins disappear.
What are the benefits of sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is effective in getting rid of varicose and spider veins, giving you healthier, younger-looking skin. It also has additional benefits, such as:
- Fast results
- Simple procedure
- No need for anesthesia
- No downtime
- Little to no discomfort
- Predictable results
- Safe, time-proven procedure
- Can improve mild pain and itchiness
Results from sclerotherapy are impressive and permanent — once the unsightly vein is gone, it can’t grow back. However, you should remember that sclerotherapy can’t prevent new spider or varicose veins forming.
How many sclerotherapy sessions do I need?
The number of sessions you need depends on the size of the treatment area and the types of veins involved. Most patients see an improvement after their first treatment session, with visible lightening of the veins. Two or more sessions typically provide optimal results.
Sclerotherapy sessions are easy to fit into a busy schedule because you don’t need to make any special preparations, and you can carry on with your day as normal afterward.
It’s best to take it easy for the first few days and avoid standing or sitting for extended periods or any exercises that are overly strenuous for your legs.
If you have troublesome veins that are unsightly or uncomfortable, call Mission Surgical Clinic to schedule a consultation or book an appointment online today.
