Sclerotherapy Veins Treatment

- Vein sclerotherapy procedures involve having an injection of salt solution injected directly into the varicose veins or spider veins of the patient. This is used to remove or prevent varicose veins and spider veins. This solution irritates the lining of the blood vessels which makes them stick together. Over time, the affected blood vessels turn into scar tissue and fade from sight
- Ask your vascular medicine specialist or dermatoligist if this is right for you
- The Procedure: takes between 15-30 minutes using a very fine needle to inject directly into the vein, you will feel some discomfort for a few minutes, is between 50-80 percent effective
