Sclerotherapy for thread veins treatment
Our discreet private clinic based at Brough, near Hull in East Yorkshire, provides Sclerotherapy for the treatment of thread veins, also known as spider veins and sometimes referred to as small varicose veins. Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical alternative to thread vein removal. Sclerotherapy is best way to treat unsightly 'thread veins' (venules) on the legs. A sclerosant is injected directly into the venules causing inflammation of the walls of the vessel. The venules disappear over a few weeks to months. Larger varicose veins may also be treated by sclerotherapy, but sometimes surgery is a better option. Sclerosants
Scleroven is widely thought of as the best and safest solution. Repeated treatments are sometimes necessary at six- to twelve-weekly intervals. Although each session may involve a large number of injections, the needle used is very fine so that pain is not generally a problem. There may be some stinging as the solution travels through the smaller vessels. These become red and slightly swollen, sometimes itchy for a few hours.
Aftercare
Sticky pads are applied to the injection sites. Pressure is applied using graduated compression bandages. These are usually worn for seven days following each treatment. Patients are able to return to normal daytime activities immediately afterwards. They should walk for at least thirty minutes a day for the first few days following the procedure. Vigorous physical activities such as weight lifting or aerobics classes are not advised during this time.
Sclerotherapy is an effective, safe way of treating thread veins. Our clinic is within easy reach of Hull, Beverley, Doncaster, Driffield, Goole, Grimsby, Hessle, Leeds, Market Weighton, Scunthorpe, Selby, Willerby and York. |
