Microsclerotherapy

Thread Vein Removal

Our clinic offers thread vein removal through advanced Microsclerotherapy, a proven technique for eliminating spider veins and small reticular veins. This non-surgical procedure involves injecting a sclerosant solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and fade over time.

Thread veins, also known as spider veins, can be particularly bothersome on visible areas like the legs or face, impacting both appearance and self-confidence. Microsclerotherapy (thread vein removal) effectively targets these veins, providing smoother, clearer skin without the need for invasive surgery.

How It Works?

Our Process

Our process begins with a comprehensive consultation to assess your specific concerns and determine the best course of treatment. If vein removal is recommended, a thorough examination will be performed to identify any underlying varicose veins that may contribute to your condition. The treatment itself is performed in-office, requiring no anesthesia and typically lasting under an hour. Following the procedure, a compression stocking may be advised to optimize results and minimize discomfort during recovery.
What is Thread Vein Removal?
Thread vein removal, or Microsclerotherapy, involves injecting a sclerosant solution directly into unwanted spider veins or small reticular veins. This causes the veins to collapse and eventually fade from view as the body absorbs them. It's a highly effective treatment for improving the appearance of thread veins on areas such as the legs and face, where they can be particularly noticeable and impact self-confidence. The procedure is minimally invasive and offers significant results without the need for surgery.
How does it work?
During Microsclerotherapy, a specialized light is used to highlight the veins, and a fine needle is used to inject a liquid sclerosant into the affected veins. This solution irritates the vein walls, causing them to collapse and stick together. Over time, the body naturally absorbs the treated veins, gradually fading them from view. The procedure is relatively quick, typically lasting less than an hour, and does not require anesthesia. Patients may experience mild discomfort during the injections, but this is generally well-tolerated.

Most Popular Questions

Microsclerotherapy is a specialized procedure designed to treat spider veins (thread veins) and small reticular veins. It involves injecting a sclerosant solution into the veins to cause them to collapse and fade over time, improving both appearance and symptoms.

Microsclerotherapy is preferred over alternatives like laser or intense pulsed light (IPL) for its ability to treat hidden feeder veins, quicker procedure time, and minimal risk of skin damage, scarring, bruising, or swelling.

Before treatment, a duplex ultrasound scan may be performed to identify underlying varicose veins. The procedure itself involves injecting a sclerosant into the affected veins using a fine needle, followed by compression stocking application.

Patients can typically resume daily activities immediately after Microsclerotherapy, though strenuous exercise should be avoided initially. Compression stockings may need to be worn for up to two weeks to support healing.

 

It is advisable to avoid flying for at least two weeks post-treatment, especially for long-haul flights, to minimize the risk of complications related to vein health and circulation.
