FAQ

About Sclerotherapy

What is sclerotherapy, and how does it work to treat spider veins and varicose veins?

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat spider veins and varicose veins. It involves injecting a specialised solution, called a sclerosant, directly into the affected veins. This solution irritates the lining of the veins, causing them to collapse and stick together. Over time, the treated veins are absorbed by the body, resulting in a significant reduction or complete disappearance of the visible veins. Sclerotherapy is a popular and effective treatment option due to its quick procedure time, minimal discomfort, and low recovery time.

Who is an ideal candidate for sclerotherapy, and are there any contraindications for the treatment?

Ideal candidates for sclerotherapy are individuals who experience discomfort, pain, or cosmetic concerns related to spider veins or small varicose veins. Generally, those with good overall health and realistic expectations for the treatment outcome make suitable candidates. However, sclerotherapy may not be recommended for pregnant women, people with a history of blood clots, or those with certain medical conditions. A consultation with a qualified medical professional will help determine if sclerotherapy is the right treatment option for you.

How many sclerotherapy sessions are typically required to achieve optimal results, and how long do the effects last?

The number of sclerotherapy sessions required to achieve optimal results varies depending on the size, location, and severity of the veins being treated. Some patients may see significant improvement after just one session, while others may require multiple treatments spaced several weeks apart. The effects of sclerotherapy can be long-lasting, with treated veins often remaining closed permanently. However, sclerotherapy cannot prevent new spider veins or varicose veins from forming, so additional treatments may be necessary to maintain results over time.

What can I expect during a sclerotherapy treatment session, and is the procedure painful or uncomfortable?

During a sclerotherapy treatment session, your medical professional will first examine the treatment area and prepare the injection sites. The procedure involves injecting the sclerosant solution into the affected veins using a fine needle. Most patients report minimal discomfort during the injections, often describing the sensation as a mild stinging or burning. The treatment session typically lasts 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the number of veins being treated.

How soon can I expect to see results after undergoing sclerotherapy, and how do they compare to other vein treatment options?

The results of sclerotherapy can be seen within a few weeks following the procedure, with the treated veins gradually fading or disappearing completely. The effectiveness of sclerotherapy often surpasses that of other vein treatment options, such as some laser therapies or surgery. Additionally, sclerotherapy offers the advantages of minimal discomfort, low recovery time, and a lower risk of complications compared to more invasive treatments.

What sets sclerotherapy apart from other treatments for spider veins and varicose veins, and why should I consider it as a treatment option?

Sclerotherapy sets itself apart from other spider vein and varicose vein treatments due to its proven effectiveness, minimal invasiveness, and relatively low risk of complications. Unlike surgery or some laser treatments, sclerotherapy offers a quick, in-office procedure with little to no downtime. The treatment can provide long-lasting results for many patients, significantly improving the appearance and discomfort associated with spider veins and varicose veins. When considering treatment options, sclerotherapy stands out as a reliable, efficient, and well-established method for addressing these common vein concerns.
