What is Micro Sclerotherapy?
Micro sclerotherapy is a safe, well established technique used to treat spider veins or thread veins on the legs. It is a relatively straightforward procedure which involves injecting a solution with a very tiny needle into the veins which causes the lining of the vein to breakdown, triggering a healing response which will cause the vein to disappear over time.
What's our process?
Identify the underlying cause
It is important to note that before any Micro sclerotherapy is undertaken, it is essential to have a venous duplex ultrasound scan. This scan will confirm whether there are any hidden, underlying varicose veins which are feeding blood into the thread veins and keeping them open. Failure to treat the underlying cause of the thread veins results in unsuccessful outcomes for the majority of people.

What results can I expect?
The results are not immediate. The veins look worse before they look better and the treatment may need to be repeated at 4-12 week intervals. Most patients see at 60-80% improvement on the appearance of their veins after between 2-5 treatments.
Are the results permanent?
The veins that are successfully treated will not reoccur but we can’t stop new ones from developing which could happen over time after the treatment.
