Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure in which a solution is injected into a vein to cause it to collapse and scar. This is typically done to treat spider veins and varicose veins, which are unsightly and can cause discomfort and other health problems. The procedure is relatively quick and simple, and most people can return to their normal activities soon afterwards.
How does it work?
The sclerosant is injected directly into the vein using a very fine needle, and the entire procedure typically takes only a few minutes. Once the sclerosant has been injected, the vein will start to collapse and scar, and over time it will become less visible.
Candidates for Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is typically recommended for people who have spider veins or varicose veins that are causing discomfort or other health problems. Spider veins are small, thin veins that are visible just under the surface of the skin and often appear as red, blue, or purple web-like patterns. Varicose veins are larger, swollen veins that are often visible just under the surface of the skin and may appear as twisted, bulging cords. Both types of veins can be unsightly and may cause symptoms such as aching, burning, swelling, or cramping in the legs. If you are experiencing these symptoms and are concerned about the appearance of your veins, you may want to speak with a doctor about whether sclerotherapy is right for you.

Does it hurt?uring the treatment, it is common to feel mild stinging or burning while the solution is in contact with the skin. Following a peel, your skin may appear red, feel tight or be mildly irritated. Collectively, most clients report only mild discomfort during and after the procedure. For more intensive chemical peels, moderate swelling and dryness may occur and in rare cases blistering.

When should I expect to see results from my peel?In the case of many peels, you will see noticeable improvements within the first few days after treatment. However, to achieve significant results, multiple treatments may be required.

What do I do when my skin starts peeling?We recommend you do not pick or pull at the dead skin and allow the skin to slough off naturally at its own pace. For more rapid peeling you can choose to forgo the use of moisturizers; however, if this becomes too uncomfortable moisturize to your comfort level. Once the peeling slows you can reintroduce moisture ideally with a product containing Hyaluronic acid.
