MICROSCLEROTHERAPY

Microsclerotherapy is a well established injection technique that can effectively treat thread veins on the legs.

It involves injecting a solution directly into the vein. The sclerotherapy solution causes the vein to scar, forcing blood to reroute through healthier veins. The collapsed vein is reabsorbed into local tissue and eventually fades. After sclerotherapy, treated veins tend to fade within a few weeks, although occasionally it may take a month or more to see the full results. In some instances, several sclerotherapy treatments may be needed.

Our Facts

It is not always possible to achieve 100% clearance but we aim for at least 60 – 80% improvement in their appearance. The results are not immediate. The veins look worse before they look better and the treatment may need to be repeated at 4-12 week intervals. Most clients are satisfied with the results somewhere between two and four treatments.

The Facts

The veins that are successfully treated will not re-occur but we can’t stop new ones from developing which could happen over time after the treatment.

Aftercare

Immediately after the treatment graduated compression stockings must be applied. You will be advised to wear these continuously day and night for up to 14 days. The compression supports the healing process and will help to prevent any post-treatments complications. There is no down-time as such and you can immediately drive or return to work. The healing vessels may take up to 6 – 8 weeks to fully fade. During that time you must avoid UV exposure.
