Sclerotherapy.
Visible veins on the legs can chip away at your confidence, from how you feel in shorts to whether you cover up on holiday.
The treatment
What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a simple, established way to treat visible thread and spider veins on the legs. We use Fibrovein (sodium tetradecyl sulphate), a medical sclerosant, mixed with a little lidocaine for your comfort. The solution gently irritates the lining of the vein, causing it to close and seal.
The method
How it works.
Once the vein is sealed, your body gradually reabsorbs the treated vein and redirects blood to healthier ones, so it fades from view over the weeks that follow. Most people need around three sessions for the best result.

The experience
What to expect.
Step 01
Your consultation
Every face has a story, and before anything else we take time to understand yours. We review your medical history, read your face in movement, and explain what we recommend and why, so the plan is clear before we begin.
Step 02
Your treatment
The solution is injected into the targeted veins, taking around forty-five minutes. Compression stockings are then worn for the first five to seven days to support the result.
Step 03
Your aftercare
Mild bruising can occur, and compression stockings are worn for the first five to seven days: an important part of a good result, not an optional step. We advise fully on aftercare and review your progress between sessions, with our client care team staying in close contact throughout and on hand whenever you would like reassurance. As the treated veins fade over the weeks ahead, the clearer, smoother legs feel like a freedom that is wonderfully your own.
