4. Review

This is a vital part of your journey as it gives us the opportunity to check how the veins have reacted to the treatment. Sometimes, the treatment may result in small amounts of trapped blood which can cause mild discomfort. In your review, your vein specialist will release any trapped blood.

How Sclerotherapy Works:

The solution acts like a glue causing the vein walls to stick together which results in the vein collapsing in on itself. The blood then re-routes to healthier veins whilst the injected/collapsed vein breaks down and gets absorbed into the surrounding tissue.

Sclerotherapy is appropriate for the treatment of spider veins and varicose veins. This process often requires multiple treatments depending on the severity of the veins. During your initial consultation, your vein specialist will advise you on the number of sessions recommended.

All of our treatments are performed within the clinic and are non-invasive, walk in-walk out procedures. No need for pesky full day hospital visits! The sclerotherapy treatment will generally take only 30 minutes and does not require any anaesthetic. You may feel a slight stinging feeling as the solution enters the vein, however this discomfort is short term and will subside quickly.
