Non-Surgical Support for Surface Veins
Spider veins are small vessels close to the surface of the skin that may appear red, purple, or blue. Often found on the legs or face, they are typically harmless but may cause cosmetic concerns for some individuals. Sclerotherapy involves applying a specialised solution directly to the targeted veins. This triggers a response that causes the veins to close, allowing the body to gradually process and absorb them.
Early Attention May Help
Managing spider veins at an earlier stage may help limit the progression of visible changes. Treatment is typically completed within 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number and location of the veins. Some temporary discomfort may be experienced during the procedure. The number of veins addressed will depend on your individual concerns and overall condition.
About the Sclerotherapy Treatment
Addressing spider veins early can provide the opportunity to manage their appearance more conservatively over time.
Each session involves the careful application of a salt-based solution to the targeted veins. You may feel a mild stinging or warming sensation during the process. Sessions are generally short and do not require recovery time.
Your treatment will be delivered by trained professionals at one of our Sydney clinics.
During The Procedure
Our clinical team will ensure you are comfortable before beginning. The solution is applied directly to the areas of concern.
Some people may notice a brief sensation or tingling during the procedure. The amount of solution used and number of areas treated will vary depending on the individual treatment plan discussed in your consultation.
After the Procedure
Redness, swelling, or mild bruising can occur temporarily in the treated areas. Some veins may appear darker before they begin to fade over time.
There may also be light pigmentation changes near the treatment site. These generally resolve on their own.
You’ll be encouraged to go for a short walk following your appointment. Most people return to normal daily activities the same day. You may be advised to elevate your legs and avoid long periods of standing during the first 24 hours. Your practitioner may also recommend wearing compression garments for a period of time.
Potential Candidates for Sclerotherapy
This service may be suitable for individuals in good health with visible surface veins.
If you have a history of blood clots, suitability will depend on your specific medical background. Sclerotherapy is not recommended during pregnancy.
A detailed consultation will be conducted to assess your needs, medical history, and whether this service is appropriate for you. If so, a personalised treatment plan will be developed.
