SCLEROTHERAPY

Microsclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment designed to reduce the appearance of small, visible thread veins and spider veins, most commonly found on the legs.

The treatment involves carefully injecting a specialised solution directly into the unwanted vein using a very fine needle. The solution irritates the lining of the vein , causing the walls to close together. Over time, the treated veins are then naturally broken down and absorbed by the body, allowing it to gradually fade from view. During your treatment, the area will be carefully assessed before the treatment is carried out. Multiple veins can be treated per session depending on the size and extent of the area.

Following microsclerotherapy, compression stockings may be recommended to support the treated veins. The veins do not disappear immediately, they gradually fade as the body absorbs them, with improvement developing over the following weeks and months. It is advised to remain mobile and continue with gentle exercise post treatment.
