Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy (also known as Micro-Sclerotherapy) is one of the best treatments available for those superficial and unsightly broken veins on the legs.

The removal of these superficial veins does not affect your deep venous system and the sclero solution is quite harmless to the rest of the body.

How it works:
The tip of a bevelled needle, containing a tiny drop of solution, is introduced into the thread vein. The solution enters the vein, causing it to blanch and tingle for a second or two. This then becomes temporarily reddened, as the lining of the vein is irritated. After a while the sides of the vein will either collapse, or swell and stick together, sealing off the vein and preventing the passage of more blood.

Results you can expect:
The closing down process of the vein can continue for several weeks or even months after the final treatment. The width of the broken vein will determine whether it is necessary to repeat the treatment. Most clients are delighted with the improvement after just one treatment. Minute scabbing or slight discoloration at the injection site is transient and legs may feel a little tender for the next few days.

An initial consultation may take up to 15 minutes, then a further 15-30 minutes, depending on the area to be treated.

This treatment is effective for the following issues:

• Leg Veins
