Sclerotherapy in Austin, TX

At ProDerm Skin & Surgery, we offer sclerotherapy as a safe and effective way to reduce the appearance of spider veins and certain small varicose veins. The veins are targeted and gently collapsed, and gradually absorbed by the body. This results in smoother-looking skin and improved cosmetic appearance, often with relief from associated discomfort.

Sclerotherapy has been the gold standard for eliminating spider veins and small varicose veins for decades, with consistently high success rates for appropriate candidates. During the in-office procedure, your provider injects an FDA-approved sclerosing solution directly into the targeted vessels, causing them to collapse. Over time, the body reabsorbs the treated vein as scar tissue and naturally reroutes blood through healthier vessels nearby. Patients typically feel only mild stinging during injections and can resume normal activity the same day. Spider veins generally begin fading within three to six weeks, while larger veins may take three to four months to fully resolve. Wearing compression stockings as directed after each session plays a critical role in supporting results, and multiple sessions spaced four to six weeks apart may be recommended for optimal clearance.
