Sclerotherapy
Help achieve the look of your dreams.
While generally harmless, spider or varicose veins can make anyone second guess their choice to wear mini dresses or shorts.
Spider veins are small clumps of visible red, purple or blue veins that develop on the lower legs and thighs. Varicose veins are similar to spider veins; however, they are often much larger and protrude from the skin, making them difficult to conceal.
These unappealing veins are often caused by:
- Genetics
- Blood flow abnormalities
- Hormonal changes
- Injury
- Obesity
- Smoking
- Weak or damaged vein valves
Sclerotherapy is a proven solution for the permanent removal of unwanted spider and varicose veins. This treatment injects a chemical solution directly into the visible blood vessels. This harmless solution causes the veins to swell and stick together. By doing so, blood flow is stopped, and without the constant flow, the veins simply fade away.
Considering that your body contains such a high number of blood vessels, stopping the flow between a selected few has no difference in the function of your blood’s circulation, and this treatment is entirely safe.
Most patients see a noticeable reduction in the visibility of their veins within a few weeks of the treatment. This treatment can also help to address the symptoms of varicose and spider veins, including aching, swelling and burning.
