Minimally Invasive – Simple outpatient procedure with no anesthesia required.

Treatment Overview
Treatment Overview
Sclerotherapy is a trusted, minimally invasive procedure used to treat spider veins and small varicose veins on the legs and, in some cases, other areas of the body. During the procedure, a specialized solution is injected directly into the affected vein, causing the vein wall to collapse and seal shut. Over time, the treated vein is reabsorbed by the body and fades from view. Spider veins and small varicose veins are common, often caused by genetics, pregnancy, hormonal changes, prolonged standing, or aging. Although not usually dangerous, they can affect confidence and cause uncomfortable symptoms. Sclerotherapy remains one of the gold standard treatments for these conditions because of its safety, effectiveness, and predictable results.
What to Expect
What to Expect
Your treatment begins with a consultation, where your provider examines the areas of concern and discusses your goals. On the day of treatment, a very fine needle is used to inject the sclerosing solution directly into the targeted veins. The procedure usually takes 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how many veins are treated. You may experience mild stinging or cramping at the injection site, but discomfort is minimal and short-lived. After treatment, compression stockings may be recommended to support healing and improve results. Most patients can return to daily activities immediately, though heavy exercise and prolonged sun exposure should be avoided for a short period.
How it Works
How it Works
Sclerotherapy works by irritating the inner lining of the vein, causing the vein walls to stick together and close. Once closed, the vein is no longer functional and is naturally absorbed by the body. Blood flow is redirected to healthier veins, improving circulation and reducing both the appearance and symptoms of surface veins. Results are gradual: treated veins begin to fade within a few weeks, with continued improvement over several months.
Maintenance
Maintenance
For most patients, two to three sessions are recommended for optimal results, spaced a few weeks apart. Larger or more extensive vein networks may require additional treatments. While treated veins do not return, new veins can develop over time due to genetics, lifestyle, or other factors. Periodic touch-up sessions may help maintain clear, healthy-looking skin.
Pricing
Pricing
The cost of sclerotherapy depends on the number of veins treated, the size of the treatment area, and how many sessions are required. Pricing typically starts at $240 per session, with package options available for multiple treatments. A detailed quote will be provided during your consultation.

Who is Sclerotherapy For?
Sclerotherapy is a great option for people with spider veins or small to medium varicose veins that make them look bad or hurt a little. It is especially good for people who can see groups of red, blue, or purple veins on their legs, thighs, ankles, or feet. This treatment is also good for people who want an effective option that doesn’t require much downtime. But pregnant women, people who have had blood clots in the past, or people with certain medical conditions may not be able to use it. A professional consultation makes sure that sclerotherapy is safe and right for you.
