Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical vein therapy used to address spider veins and small varicose veins. In Ormond Beach, the coastal surroundings, soft ocean air, and steady sunlight create a calm environment for in-office treatments focused on comfort and steady progress. Sclerotherapy treatment involves injecting a solution directly into targeted veins, which causes them to close and gradually fade as the body reabsorbs them. In some cases, a leg vein treatment plan may also include a targeted laser or a combination of approaches, depending on the size and location of the veins. This cosmetic vein treatment is most often performed on the legs, including the thighs, calves, and ankles. It may also be used for smaller visible veins in other areas when appropriate.
Sclerotherapy in Ormond Beach, FL, is typically completed within a short office visit and does not require general anesthesia. Most individuals need two or more sessions to address multiple veins, as each sclerotherapy treatment targets specific areas. Some changes may be visible within a few weeks, while full results can take several months as the body processes the treated veins. Results vary from person to person, and new veins can develop over time. Following aftercare instructions and maintaining regular activity may support longer-lasting results.

Sclerotherapy is a vein therapy that uses a spider vein injection to introduce a solution into unwanted veins. This causes the vein walls to close, and the body gradually absorbs the treated vein.
The number of sclerotherapy treatment sessions varies. Many people need two or more sessions, especially when multiple veins are present or when veins are located in different areas.
Sclerotherapy is most often used for leg veins, but it may also be used for smaller veins in other areas when appropriate and recommended by a provider.
Results from this cosmetic vein treatment can last for years for treated veins. However, new veins may appear over time, and additional treatment may be considered if needed.
