Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a highly effective treatment designed to reduce the appearance of unwanted spider and thread veins on the legs. Using a specialised solution, the affected veins are carefully treated, causing them to collapse and gradually fade as they are naturally absorbed by the body.
This minimally invasive procedure can significantly improve the appearance of visible veins, helping to restore smoother, clearer-looking skin and boost confidence.

What To Expect
During treatment, a specialised solution is injected directly into the targeted vein using a very fine needle. The solution causes the vein walls to seal together, allowing the body to gradually break down and absorb the treated vein over time.
Some mild redness, bruising or swelling may occur following treatment, but this usually settles quickly. Compression stockings may be recommended after treatment to optimise results.
Results
Results develop gradually over several weeks as the treated veins fade from view. Depending on the number and size of veins being treated, multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve the best outcome.
A consultation will be carried out prior to treatment to assess suitability and create a personalised treatment plan.
