Sclerotherapy
How Does Sclerotherapy Work?
Over time, the hardened vein is absorbed by the body, fading away from the skin’s surface. During the sclerotherapy procedure, the vein doctor administers one injection per spider vein, so the number of injections and sessions depends on the number of spider veins. The sclerotherapy procedure is performed as an in-office treatment within the vein clinic in Maryland. It concludes within 30 minutes and involves no downtime. The vein doctor applies pressure on the veins to prevent blood from pooling while you stand up. You will have to wear compression stockings for a few days after the sclerotherapy vein treatment.

The Advantages of Sclerotherapy for Spider Veins
However, our patients say they love sclerotherapy treatment because of the convenience. Since it’s a “lunchtime” procedure, you can schedule the treatment during your lunch break, visit the vein clinic for a quick session, and then resume your daily activities. You don’t even have to take a day off work, and most patients can resume all of their daily activities immediately.
