Treatment areas for sclerotherapy injections typically include visible spider veins on various parts of the body. The goal is to address both broader areas with diffuse spider veins and specific, smaller regions with isolated veins. During your consultation, your provider will assess the extent and location of your spider veins to develop a tailored treatment plan.

Sclerotherapy injections involve introducing a specialized solution directly into unwanted spider veins. This minimally invasive method works to collapse the targeted veins, which are then naturally reabsorbed by the body over time. The treatment is designed to reduce the visibility of these veins, promoting a smoother, clearer skin appearance. Results can vary by individual and typically become more noticeable in the weeks following treatment as the body processes the treated veins.

To prepare for your sclerotherapy appointment, it's generally advised to avoid alcohol and certain blood-thinning medications or supplements for at least 24-48 hours prior, unless directed otherwise by your provider. Arrive at your appointment with clean skin, free of lotions or creams on the treatment area. Your provider will offer specific guidance during your consultation.
