Sclerotherapy s a medical procedure used to eliminate varicose veins and spider veins. Sclerotherapy involves an injection of a sclerosant solution (e.g. Sclerodex) directly into the vein. The sclerosant causes the vein to collapse, forcing blood to reroute through healthier veins. The collapsed vein is reabsorbed into local tissue and eventually fades. Usually 1 to 2 sessions are needed, and results are seen after 1 month to 6 months. There is minimal downtime apart from possible bruising that can dissipate in 1 week to a month.
This patient had been embarrassed about her visible reticular (bluish) veins behind her left knee. She underwent Sclerotherapy a month ago, and after 1 month, the reticular veins disappeared! She only had minimal bruising which disappeared after 2 weeks. She was informed that the shadows of the veins will still improve over the next few months. Now, she can wear shorts and short skirts/dresses without being embarrassed about her varicose veins anymore.
