What is Ultrasound
Guided Sclerotherapy

Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy is a precise, non-surgical technique to treat problematic veins beneath the skin’s surface. A special solution is injected directly into the vein under ultrasound guidance, causing it to collapse and gradually fade from view.
SYMPTOMS TREATED WITH SCLEROTHERAPY
  • Bulging varicose veins
  • Throbbing or aching legs
  • Swelling around ankles or calves
  • Restless legs, especially at night
  • Skin changes near veins
  • Vein-related discomfort after long periods of standing

Causes and Risk Factors

Sclerotherapy is typically used to treat surface veins that have become damaged or enlarged. The condition is often linked to circulation issues, lifestyle, and hormonal changes, especially in women.

Will my varicose or spider veins disappear for good?

Treated veins typically fade over time and won’t return. However, new vein issues may develop if the underlying cause isn’t managed. That’s why long-term vein health often includes lifestyle adjustments and regular monitoring, especially if your job or genetics put you at higher risk.
