At Living Water Vein Institute & Medical Spa, our team is dedicated to providing personalized solutions for vein health, including sclerotherapy, a minimally invasive procedure designed to reduce the appearance of problematic veins and alleviate symptoms.

What is Sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is a well-established, effective treatment for small to medium-sized veins, particularly spider veins and minor varicose veins. During the procedure, a medical-grade solution is injected into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. The treated veins fade over time, reducing visible symptoms and improving circulation in the area.

When Should You Consider Sclerotherapy?

While each person’s needs are unique, sclerotherapy may be appropriate for you if:

• You’re Experiencing Discomfort: For some, vein issues go beyond appearance. Aching, throbbing, swelling, or cramping can be signs that your veins are under stress and could benefit from treatment.
• Cosmetic Concerns: If visible veins make you feel self-conscious, sclerotherapy offers a way to enhance your appearance and improve self-confidence.
• Limited Response to Conservative Care: If you’ve tried at-home remedies, such as compression stockings, leg elevation, or lifestyle changes, and still see little improvement, sclerotherapy may provide the results you’re looking for.
• Progression of Symptoms: Without intervention, some vein issues may worsen over time. Addressing vein concerns early can help prevent more extensive treatment needs later.
