Sclerotherapy for Spider Veins | Hill Vascular & Vein Center
What Is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment used to reduce or eliminate spider veins and small varicose veins—those visible, twisted veins commonly seen on the legs. At Hill Vascular & Vein Center, our team specializes in this safe and effective outpatient procedure that helps restore both the look and health of your legs.
How Does Sclerotherapy Work?
During sclerotherapy, our vascular provider injects a medical-grade solution into the problem vein. This causes the vein to collapse and fade over time, while your blood naturally reroutes through healthy veins.
The result? Smoother, clearer skin and often a reduction in leg pain, swelling, or heaviness.
Are Your Spider Veins a Sign of a Deeper Issue?
Many patients are surprised to learn that spider veins may be more than just a cosmetic concern. In some cases, they can be a visible sign of underlying venous insufficiency—a condition where valves in the deeper leg veins don’t work properly, allowing blood to pool.
At Hill Vascular, we don’t just treat the surface—we treat the source.
🩺 During your initial consultation, we will assess your vein symptoms and medical history.
📊 If we suspect deeper vein disease, we may perform a non-invasive ultrasound to evaluate your venous system before starting treatment.
✅ This ensures that we’re not only improving appearance, but also addressing the root cause of your vein issues.

What to Expect
Before Treatment:
We begin with a consultation to evaluate your concerns. If needed, we’ll perform a venous ultrasound to rule out underlying vein disease. This allows us to create the most effective and personalized treatment plan.
During Treatment:
A sclerosing solution is injected with a tiny needle into the target veins. Most patients feel minimal discomfort—similar to a small pinch.
After Treatment:
- Return to normal activities the same day
- Wear compression stockings as advised
- Avoid strenuous activity or sun exposure as instructed
- Some veins may require multiple sessions
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Sclerotherapy is ideal for adults in good health who experience:
- Cosmetic spider veins
- Mild leg swelling or discomfort
- Residual veins after vein surgery or ablation
However, it is not recommended for individuals who are pregnant or have a history of blood clots without a full vascular assessment.
