Micro-Sclerotherapy
Anyone can suffer with thread (red, spider or broken) veins, and they can appear on any part of the body. Although harmless, they can cause distress as the sufferer often feels self-conscious, particularly if the veins are on an exposed part of the body, such as the legs.
These veins can be caused by hormonal changes, sun damage, genetics, standing for long periods of time consistently or local injury.
Sclerotherapy treatment was developed in the 1920s for the treatment of varicose veins. This was refined for the treatment of thread veins, and this procedure is what we now call Micro-sclerotherapy. Micro simply refers to the very small veins targeted by this procedure as seen in the above video.
Micro-sclerotherapy can only be used to treat broken/spider/thread veins that are below heart level.
The treatment involves tiny injections of a “sclerosant” substance, (we use fibrovein) directly into thread veins. This causes them to collapse, re-route and disappear with instantly visible results on some thread veins. Results then continue for 6-8 weeks after treatment.
