Varicose/Spider Veins

Beautiful Blemish-Free Legs

Sclerotherapy, the gold-standard treatment for spider veins, involves injecting a saline solution or detergent into the veins, causing them to clump together or clot and become less apparent.

Who is a good candidate? – “Anybody who has veins they don’t like is a good candidate (for sclerotherapy) because it’s an incredibly safe, and easy procedure.”

Varicose veins usually don’t cause any pain. Signs you may have varicose veins include:

• Veins that are dark purple or blue in color

• Veins that appear twisted and bulging; often like cords on your legs

Spider veins are similar to varicose veins, but they’re smaller. Spider veins are found closer to the skin’s surface and are often red or blue. They occur on the legs, but can also be found on the face. Spider veins vary in size and often look like a spider’s web

How does it work?

During sclerotherapy a solution is injected into your varicose or spider veins. This causes the vein to seal off from the other veins in your leg. The vein closes down over time and is eventually absorbed into your body.Once the vein is closed, the blood that was circulating through the abnormal vein is naturally rerouted to other healthy veins. Over time, the treated vein is absorbed by the body. Normal blood flow is then rerouted to healthy veins.
