Sclerotherapy

What is sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure primarily used to treat small varicose veins and spider veins. It involves injecting a sclerosing solution into the vein to cause it to close and eventually be reabsorbed by the body.

When may sclerotherapy be performed?

It may be recommended for spider veins and certain varicose veins after a medical evaluation to assess the affected veins and determine the most appropriate treatment.

How is sclerotherapy performed?

The specialist injects the medication into selected veins using a fine needle. Depending on the case, liquid or foam sclerotherapy may be used, sometimes with ultrasound guidance.
