How Does Sclerotherapy Work?
Sclerotherapy works by injecting a specialized solution into targeted veins, causing them to collapse and be naturally broken down over time. This improves the appearance of treated veins gradually rather than instantly.
During treatment, a provider carefully identifies the veins to be addressed and uses a very fine needle to inject the solution into those vessels. Once treated, the vein walls stick together, blood flow shifts to healthier veins, and the treated vein begins to fade in the weeks that follow.
The treatment process is precise and personalized. Some patients need only one session, while others may benefit from multiple treatments, depending on the number and visibility of the veins.
You May Be an Ideal Candidate if:
- You are bothered by visible spider veins or small reticular veins
- You want a non-surgical vein treatment
- You have realistic expectations about gradual improvement
- You are in generally good health
A consultation is the best way to determine whether sclerotherapy matches your goals. Some veins may require a different treatment approach, especially if they are larger or linked to underlying vein concerns.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to see results from sclerotherapy?
Results are gradual. Many patients notice improvement over the weeks following treatment as the body clears the treated veins.
Does sclerotherapy hurt?
Most patients describe the treatment as very manageable. You may feel a brief pinch or mild stinging with the injections, but sessions are generally well-tolerated.
Will I need more than one treatment?
Possibly. Some patients achieve their desired improvement in one visit, while others benefit from multiple sessions, depending on the number and size of visible veins.
Is there downtime after sclerotherapy?
There is usually minimal downtime. Many people return to normal routines quickly, although specific aftercare instructions should always be followed.
Can sclerotherapy treat all types of veins?
No. Sclerotherapy is commonly used to treat spider veins and certain small, visible veins. Larger or underlying vein issues may need a different evaluation or treatment plan.
Are the results permanent?
Treated veins typically do not return once they are successfully closed, but new veins can develop over time. Maintenance treatments may be helpful for some patients.
