Sclerotherapy for Varicose Veins
Sclerotherapy is a medical treatment for varicose veins, which are swollen, twisted veins often found in the legs. During the procedure, a doctor injects a special solution directly into the affected veins. This solution irritates the vein lining, causing it to close and eventually fade from view. The body then naturally absorbs the collapsed vein over time. Sclerotherapy is minimally invasive and can reduce the appearance of varicose veins, alleviate discomfort, and improve the overall appearance of the legs. It's usually done in a doctor's office and doesn’t require a lengthy recovery.
