Sclerotherapy - Leg Thread Vein Removal

Say Goodbye to Thread Veins with Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is a safe, effective treatment designed to reduce the appearance of thread veins (also known as spider veins) on the legs. This treatment involves injecting a solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and fade over time.

It’s a popular choice for those looking to improve the appearance of their legs without surgery or downtime.

Key Benefits:

Reduces the appearance of thread and spider veins
Improves overall skin clarity and leg appearance
Helps treat mild leg discomfort caused by visible veins
Non-surgical with minimal downtime
Boosts confidence when wearing shorts, dresses, or swimwear
Targets superficial veins without affecting surrounding tissue

How It Works:

A fine needle is used to inject a chemical solution into the visible veins. This causes the vein walls to stick together and collapse, eventually being absorbed by the body. The surrounding circulation is then redirected through healthier veins.

Treatment Details

Recommended sessions: A course of 2–3 treatments spaced 6-8 weeks apart is typically recommended for best results, depending on the number and severity of veins

Treatment time: Approximately 30 minutes

Downtime: Mild redness, itching, swelling, or bruising may occur around the treated area. Compression stockings may be advised post-treatment to support healing and enhance results.

Frequently asked questions

When will I see results?

Improvements can be seen within 4-6 weeks, although in some cases, it may take longer for veins to fully fade.

Does the treatment hurt?

Most people experience only mild discomfort, similar to a small pinprick. Any stinging or irritation usually passes quickly after the injection.

How many sessions will I need?

Many clients see great results after just one session, but some may require multiple treatments depending on the number and severity of veins being treated. This can be discussed during your consultation.
