Outlook
In some instances, you might find that varicose veins and spider veins respond best to sclerotherapy especially when these veins are smaller. You may be able to see improvement within a few weeks of treatment. For larger varicose veins, the visual improvement can take up to four months. You might need some sessions to completely eliminate all the varicose or spider veins. Statistic shows that 83 percent of people who had sclerotherapy experienced a decrease in pain related to varicose veins in a 2014 study. It’s of great importance to have realistic expectations about the effectiveness of sclerotherapy. What you should know about Sclerotherapy is that this procedure doesn’t always lead to invisible traces or side effects of varicose or spider veins after the procedure. Your healthcare provider can help you determine whether you’re a good candidate for this procedure or not.
