941-706-2041 Vein and Capillary Reduction and Treatment What Is Sclerotherapy? Sclerotherapy is a procedure used to eliminate varicose and spider veins. It involves the injection of a solution directly into the vein. The solution irritates the vessel wall lining causing the vein wall to swell and stick together eventually causing the vein to turn into microscopic scar tissue that fades over time. It is considered the gold standard of vein treatment for leg veins less than 4 mm in diameter. Sclerotherapy is a well-proven treatment for vein disease and has been in use since the 1930’s. Before and 2 Months Following Treatment Studies have shown that as many as 50% - 80% of injected veins may be eliminated with each session of sclerotherapy. Less than 10% of the people who have sclerotherapy do not respond to the injections at all. In these instances a different solution can be tried. Although this procedure works for most patients, there are no guarantees for success.
