SCLEROTHERAPY

Thread Vein Treatment - Sclerotherapy
Thread veins are the common name given for unsightly purple/red
superficial veins under the surface of the skin, usually on the legs or the face. Thread veins can be caused by sun-damage, hormonal changes, pregnancy, physical trauma or genetic factors.

Thread Veins
Thousands of people who have suffered from thread veins caused by broken blood vessels, have been treated successfully with Sclerotherapy, which gives excellent results.
Perfect Skin
Treatment involves injecting a solution very superficially into the thread veins with a fine needle. This causes the vein to shrink and make them less visible. An anaesthetic cream is applied prior to injection to keep discomfort to the minimum. Each treatment will narrow the vein further until they close down completely and disappear within a few weeks.

Usually more than one treatment may be required. The treatment takes around 20-30 minutes You will be able to discuss the treatment in detail with the doctor at your initial consultation.
