What is Microsclerotherapy?
Microsclerotherapy is a safe and minimally invasive procedure designed to treat thread veins (telangiectasia) and spider veins on the legs. These small, superficial veins often appear as clusters and can affect self-confidence.
The procedure involves injecting a specially formulated sclerosant solution into the veins using a fine needle. This solution causes the veins to inflame, collapse, and eventually be reabsorbed by the body, leaving your skin clearer and smoother.
Microsclerotherapy is a tried-and-tested treatment offering significant and long-lasting results for suitable candidates.
Who is Microsclerotherapy For?
Microsclerotherapy is ideal for men and women seeking to improve the appearance of thread or spider veins on their legs. It’s especially beneficial for individuals who:
- Feel self-conscious about visible veins.
- Want to enhance their legs' appearance without surgery.
- Are looking for a safe, effective treatment with minimal downtime.
However, it may not be suitable for individuals with severe vascular disease or varicose veins. A thorough consultation with our Nurse Prescriber will determine if this treatment is right for you.
Why Choose Microsclerotherapy?
Opting for Microsclerotherapy offers several key benefits:
- Visible Improvements: Achieve up to 95% improvement in the appearance of thread veins over the treatment course.
- Boosted Confidence: Feel more comfortable showcasing your legs.
- Non-Surgical Solution: A safe, minimally invasive procedure with minimal discomfort.
- Long-Lasting Results: Results can last for several years, though maintenance may be required as new veins develop.
How Does Microsclerotherapy Work?
1. Consultation:
- Our Nurse Prescriber will assess the veins and creates a personalised treatment plan.
2. Injection:
- Using a fine needle, a sclerosant solution is injected into the targeted veins.
- The solution irritates the vein walls, causing them to collapse and be absorbed by the body.
3. Post-Treatment Care:
- You may experience temporary bruising or raised bumps in the treated areas.
- Compression stockings are recommended to optimise results and minimise side effects.
4. Follow-Up:
- An additional session may be scheduled 8 weeks later to treat any remaining veins.
The length of each session depends on the number and size of veins being treated.
How Long Will Microsclerotherapy Results Last?
The results of Microsclerotherapy can last for several years, with approximately 95% of treated veins disappearing after a full treatment course.
- Maintenance: While treated veins do not return, new veins may develop over time. Periodic maintenance sessions can help sustain your results.
- Aftercare: To maximise the treatment's effectiveness, avoid flying or leg waxing temporarily and compression hosiery must be worn as advised.
