Sclerotherapy for Spider Veins
Sclerotherapy for Spider Veins involves injecting a solution into the veins to cause them to collapse and fade away. This quick, minimally invasive treatment restores a smoother, more even skin appearance with little recovery time.
What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a well-established, minimally invasive treatment used to eliminate spider veins and smaller varicose veins. The procedure involves injecting a special solution directly into the affected veins, which causes them to shrink, collapse, and eventually fade from view.
At Vein Doctor of NJ, we specialize in sclerotherapy for spider veins as an effective and safe solution for individuals looking to improve the appearance of their legs and alleviate symptoms associated with vein disorders. This procedure is non-surgical, requires little downtime, and provides lasting results.

How Does Sclerotherapy Work?
During the sclerotherapy procedure, a small needle is used to inject a sclerosant solution directly into the targeted vein. The sclerosant irritates the vein lining, causing the vein to close and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. As a result, the appearance of spider veins diminishes over time, leaving the skin smoother and more even.
Sclerotherapy is particularly effective for treating spider veins—the small, red, blue, or purple veins that often appear on the surface of the legs. It can also be used to treat smaller varicose veins, offering a simple solution for improving both the health and appearance of your legs.

Who is a Good Candidate for Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a suitable option for individuals who suffer from spider veins, and it can also be used to treat smaller varicose veins. You may be a good candidate for sclerotherapy if you:
Have visible spider veins on your legs or other parts of your body.
Are looking for a non-surgical solution to improve the appearance of your legs.
Experience symptoms like itching, burning, or aching in the affected area.
Do not have any severe underlying vein disorders such as chronic venous insufficiency.
It is important to consult with a vein specialist to determine if sclerotherapy is the best treatment for your specific condition.

At Vein Doctor of NJ, we take pride in offering personalized, effective treatments for our patients. Here’s what you can expect during a sclerotherapy session:
Consultation
During your initial consultation, our board-certified specialists will evaluate your condition, discuss your medical history, and examine the veins. We may perform an ultrasound to assess the blood flow and determine the best treatment approach for you.
Procedure
The sclerotherapy procedure is performed in the comfort of our office. A small needle is used to inject a sclerosing solution into the affected veins. You may feel a slight pinch or mild discomfort during the injection, but the procedure is well-tolerated by most patients.

After the procedure, you can resume most normal activities immediately. We recommend wearing compression stockings for a few weeks to help improve circulation and optimize the results. Avoid prolonged periods of standing or sitting and any strenuous physical activity for a few days.

Results of Sclerotherapy
While results vary, most patients begin to see a noticeable improvement within a few weeks after treatment. The injected veins gradually fade and become less visible, with optimal results often visible after 3–6 weeks. Some patients may require multiple treatment sessions to achieve the desired outcome, especially if they have numerous or larger veins.
Note: Sclerotherapy does not prevent the formation of new veins. However, following proper post-treatment care can significantly reduce the risk of recurrence.
