Foam sclerotherapy is a simple, effective treatment for smaller varicose veins and spider veins. A specially prepared foam medication (sclerosant) is injected directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse, scar and gradually fade from view. Over time the body naturally absorbs the closed veins. At Vericure Clinic, Dr. Vishal Jindal uses foam sclerotherapy both for cosmetic improvement and as a complement to other vein treatments.
How Sclerotherapy Works
The foam solution irritates the vein lining so the vein collapses and is slowly reabsorbed by the body.
- Quick Injections
- No Anaesthesia Needed
