Foam Sclerotherapy for Varicose Veins
Foam Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive, non-surgical treatment used to manage varicose and spider veins. A specialized foam solution is injected directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. This procedure effectively redirects blood flow to healthier veins, improving both symptoms and appearance. It is performed on an outpatient basis, requires no general anesthesia, and allows for a quick recovery with minimal discomfort.
Procedure
A fine needle injects a specialized foam into the veins, causing them to collapse and fade.
