Sclerotherapy Treatment

Are you seeking a secure, effective, and minimally invasive treatment for varicose and spider veins? Don’t bear hurting, swelling, or feeling of self-consciousness about the appearance of spider veins on your legs. Chicagoveincenters offers a seamless sclerotherapy vein treatment to help you recover confidence in your skin.

How Does the Procedure Work

How Does the Procedure Work?

To remove varicose and spider veins, you can have a medical procedure called sclerotherapy. It’s done in your dermatologic surgeon’s office and doesn’t need anesthesia. A salt solution is injected directly into the vein using a fine needle. You’ll lie on your back with your legs slightly elevated during the procedure. The area will be cleaned before injecting the solution into the vein with a fine needle.

You might feel mild discomfort and cramping for a minute or two, especially with larger veins. The whole procedure takes about 15 to 30 minutes. After the injections, we’ll apply compression and massage the treated area to keep blood out of the vein and help spread the solution.

Is Sclerotherapy A Right Solution?

Sclerotherapy is the right solution to treat varicose or spider veins, sometimes for cosmetic reasons. A doctor can help decide if it’s the right choice.

Before considering sclerotherapy, other treatments might be tried first. For example, hemorrhoids can often be managed with lifestyle changes, eating more fiber, and avoiding straining during bowel movements.

Sclerotherapy could be the right option for varicose or spider veins if other treatments don’t work or if you have symptoms like:

  • Itching

  • Aching

  • Burning

  • Swelling

  • Night cramps

  • Legs feeling heavy or tired

Sclerotherapy Treatment Aftercare

Sclerotherapy Treatment Aftercare

After your treatment, your sclerotherapy doctor may have you lie down for about 15 minutes to watch for any reactions to the injection. After treatment, don’t ignore healing veins. Follow these steps carefully.

  • Walk around after the procedure to prevent blood clots.
  • Wear compression stockings for 1-3 weeks after treatment.
  • Return to normal activities right after the procedure.
  • Avoid sunlight on the treated area for 2 weeks.
