Sclerotherapy
A simple outpatient injection treatment that shrinks and collapses visible surface veins, with results that generally last once the veins are gone.
Why Choose Lazaderm
What Is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy uses a very fine needle to inject a liquid or foam chemical solution directly into visible surface veins. The solution causes the treated vein to shrink and collapse over time. Multiple sessions are often needed for full results, but once a treated vein is gone, it generally stays that way. This procedure is performed by Dr. Hansen in partnership with Physicians Vein Clinics.
Who Is a Good Candidate for Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a good fit for patients with visible spider veins or larger surface veins who want a non-surgical treatment option. Dr. Hansen will discuss your specific expectations and candidacy during your initial consultation.

Before Your Treatment
Dr. Hansen reviews your veins and discusses expectations and aftercare with you during your initial consultation.
During Your Treatment
Sclerotherapy is a simple outpatient procedure in which the solution is injected through a very fine needle directly into the vein. You may feel mild discomfort for a minute or two, especially with larger veins. The full procedure takes about 15 to 30 minutes and can take place over a lunch break.
After Your Treatment
You’ll wear compression stockings following the procedure and should avoid heavy aerobic activity for a few days, though walking is encouraged. Spider veins typically respond within three to six weeks, and larger veins within three to four months. Veins that respond to treatment generally don’t reappear, though new veins can develop over time. If needed, you can return for additional injections.
