Vein treatments using sclerotherapy are a minimally invasive option for treating spider and varicose veins. During the treatment, a solution is injected directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and eventually fade from view. This process irritates the blood vessel’s lining, forming scar tissue that closes off the vein. Sclerotherapy can effectively target veins in the legs, thighs, and ankles, improving the appearance and discomfort of these conditions. Ideal candidates for sclerotherapy are individuals bothered by the appearance of spider or varicose veins and those experiencing pain, swelling, or itching in the affected area.
Results from sclerotherapy typically become noticeable within a few weeks following treatment, with optimal outcomes achieved after multiple sessions. While individual results may vary, many patients enjoy long-lasting improvements in the appearance of treated veins.

At San Carlos IV and Medical Aesthetic Bar, minimally invasive vein treatments are customized to target visible veins safely and effectively with little to no downtime.
Your appointment begins with a consultation to evaluate visible veins, circulation concerns, symptoms, and treatment goals. From there, we create a customized treatment plan designed around your individual needs.
The treatment areas are carefully assessed to determine the most effective approach to improving spider veins, small varicose veins, or other visible vascular concerns while maintaining a natural-looking skin appearance.
Depending on your concerns, treatment may include techniques such as sclerotherapy or laser-based vein therapy designed to target unwanted veins while minimizing discomfort and downtime. These treatments help redirect blood flow to healthier veins over time.
Over the following weeks, treated veins gradually fade as the body naturally reabsorbs them, leaving the skin looking clearer and smoother while improving overall vein appearance.
Most patients experience minimal downtime following treatments.

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat spider and varicose veins by injecting a solution into the affected veins, effectively closing them off and improving their appearance.
The solution injected into the blood vessel irritates the inside lining of the vessel, leading it to collapse and gradually fade from view, resulting in a smoother, clearer skin appearance in the treated area.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during sclerotherapy, often likened to a slight burning or cramping sensation. This typically subsides shortly after the procedure.
The number of sessions required varies depending on the severity of the veins and individual response to treatment. An ideal treatment plan usually consists of two to six sessions spaced several weeks apart.
Mild bruising, swelling, or redness may occur at the injection site, which usually disappears within a few days. Serious complications are rare but possible and should be discussed with your healthcare provider.
While results may vary, many patients enjoy long-lasting improvements in the appearance of treated veins, with occasional touch-up sessions recommended.
