Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure used to treat varicose veins and spider veins by injecting a solution directly into the affected veins to cause them to shrink and eventually disappear. The solution irritates the vein walls and causes them to collapse and seal shut, cutting off the blood supply. This prevents further swelling and discomfort. The procedure is generally safe, minimally invasive and effective, usually requiring several treatments to achieve the desired results. It can also be used to help with hemorrhoids, lymphatic malformations and other vascular disorders. Sclerotherapy can provide a safe and effective solution to improve the appearance and function of varicose and spider veins, and the associated discomfort, with minimal risk and downtime.
