Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy is the most effective method to permanently remove those unslightly red and blue broken veins that appear on the legs.

Sclerotherapy can bring back your confidence to show off those unmarked, smooth legs.

This is an established successful technique in PERMANENT removal of thread veins on the legs. It is safe and convenient and is generally regarded as the best treatment. A very fine needle is used to inject sclerovein into the vein which causes it to dissolve. Generally a bruise is noticeable around the treated area. this is completely normal. The darker the original vein the darker it appears several days after treatment. Over the next few weeks the vein will begin to be absorbed by the body. On average it takes about 4-8 weeks for the vein to fade.

Most people are suitable for Sclerotherapy although people with heart problems, on steroid treatment or who have had deep vein thrombosis are advised against treatment.

Often more than one treatment is necessary which usually lasts about 30 minutes, but this will be assessed at the time of your consultation, which is free of charge.
