Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a treatment for superficial spider veins and reticular veins. It is a highly effective therapy that involves the injection of small amounts of a medication through a tiny needle. The medication causes irritation within the small vessels, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body, reducing the appearance of these dilated surface veins while preserving blood flow in healthy veins.
Our patients get the best results from a series of treatment sessions and some maintenance over time to mitigate new veins that appear with aging.
