Sclerotherapy is a popular method in the case of individual varicose veins, so-called “spider veins”. Sclerotherapy consists in injecting special means into sick veins and is used for changes that are not accompanied by serious damage to the main, surface trunks of the lower limbs. The drug administered irritates the inner membrane of the venous vessel, thus stimulating the work of special cells producing the fibrin. This initiates the repair process because the cells overwhelm the irritated vessel, causing its fibrosis and exclusion from the venous system.
The treatment is painless and the substance is injected with a very fine needle. At the injection site, just after the injection, you will notice redness and blood follicles that are self-absorbed.
