Spider veins and small varicose veins are a frequently encountered concern for adults, and sclerotherapy stands out as one of the most reliable and time-tested treatments available. By injecting a solution directly into the affected veins, the procedure causes them to break down and slowly fade from sight. Patients at Enchanted Medical Aesthetics who wish to diminish the appearance of visible leg veins can take advantage of this effective treatment option.
Before treatment is recommended, our providers will evaluate the veins you want to address, review your health history, and confirm whether sclerotherapy is appropriate for you. Not every visible vein is a candidate for this treatment, and a consultation is the right place to find out what your options are.

Be more confident in shorts, dresses, and on the beach. Make it happen with this vein-blasting, 60-minute in-office procedure. Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure that uses a sclerosing agent to cut off the blood supply of the unwanted veins and redirect the flow of blood to healthier veins. The treatment of spider veins involves the injection of a hypertonic saline solution that causes the incompetent veins to stick together and eventually fade away. One Sclerotherapy session includes 60 minutes of injections. For optimal results, Enchanted Medical Aesthetics recommends 3-5 treatment sessions.
During a sclerotherapy session, a sclerosing solution is injected directly into the targeted vein using a very fine needle. The solution irritates the lining of the vein, causing it to swell, stick together, and eventually collapse. Once collapsed, the vein is no longer able to carry blood and is gradually absorbed by the body over the following weeks. Blood is naturally rerouted through healthier veins nearby. Most patients need more than one session to achieve their desired outcome, and results develop gradually rather than appearing right away.
Our provider uses an ultra-fine needle to inject. A hypertonic solution directly into the vein, which irritates the lining of the blood vessel and causes it to collapse. Your body then reabsorbs the vessel over time.
The best results are visible in about a month, and some veins will require more than one treatment. Multiple spider veins and varicose veins can be treated at one appointment. For optimal results, we recommend a series of 3-5 treatments.
After your procedure, some redness and bruising may be visible around the injection site, which will fade within a couple of weeks. Sclerotherapy is a safe, well-proven procedure, and our providers are extensively trained and have a lot of experience with this treatment.
The number of sessions depends on the number and size of the veins being treated. Some patients see satisfactory results after one or two sessions, while others may need more. Your provider will give you a realistic estimate during your consultation.
Most patients describe a mild burning or stinging sensation at the injection site during treatment. This typically passes quickly. The needles used are very fine, and the appointments are generally well tolerated.
Spider veins typically begin to fade within three to six weeks after treatment. Larger veins may take longer to respond. Results develop gradually as the body absorbs the treated veins over time.
Treated veins do not return, but new veins can develop over time. Factors such as genetics, prolonged standing, and hormonal changes can contribute to new vein development after treatment.
Following treatment, patients are typically recommended to wear compression stockings and engage in regular walking to promote healthy circulation. Your provider will supply you with detailed aftercare instructions at the time of your appointment.
Sclerotherapy has been used for decades and has a well-documented safety record when performed by qualified providers. As with any injectable treatment, there are potential side effects that your provider will cover during your consultation.
