What Is Sclerotherapy for Varicose Veins?

Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure used to treat varicose and spider veins. A medicated solution is gently injected into the affected veins, causing irritation inside the vessel walls. Over the following weeks, the treated veins collapse, fade, and are naturally absorbed by the body. This technique is effective for blue reticular veins and small superficial varicose veins.

What Is Electrocautery Treatment for Spider Veins?

Electrocautery is a precise medical technique used to treat small superficial spider veins and visible facial vessels. A fine-tip cautery device delivers controlled heat to the targeted vein, causing it to seal, collapse, and fade over the following days. This method is ideal for small red or purple spider veins that are too fine for sclerotherapy and provides quick, effective results with minimal downtime.
