Safe. Effective. Minimally Invasive Vein Treatment
Sclerotherapy is a proven, minimally invasive treatment designed to reduce the appearance of varicose and spider veins while improving leg comfort and circulation. Through careful medical evaluation and precise injection techniques, affected veins are safely closed and gradually absorbed by the body, helping restore healthier-looking legs.
The clinic offers multiple sclerotherapy approaches tailored to each patient’s condition, supported by expert supervision and clear post-treatment guidance. With personalized care, advanced techniques, and a focus on long-term results, patients can expect noticeable improvement in symptoms, appearance, and overall venous health.

About the Procedure
Sclerotherapy targets abnormal veins that cause discomfort or cosmetic concerns. The injected solution irritates the vein lining, leading to vein closure and natural absorption by the body over time. Multiple sessions may be recommended depending on the number, size, and severity of the veins being treated.

Types of Veins Treated with Sclerotherapy
Spider Veins
Small, visible veins near the skin’s surface that appear red, blue, or purple and commonly affect the legs.
Reticular Veins
Medium-sized veins that often feed spider veins and contribute to venous circulation issues.
Varicose Veins
Dilated veins, tortuous and palpable that may be symptomatic.
Types of Sclerotherapy Offered at the Clinic
Liquid Sclerotherapy
This treatment is ideal for spider veins visible on the skin’s surface. It involves injecting a sclerosing agent into superficial veins.
Foam Sclerotherapy
This technique uses a sclerosing foam injected into larger veins, allowing for more extensive coverage of the treated area.
Echosclerosis
Sometimes used for deeper varicose veins, this treatment involves ultrasound-guided foam injections to close a dilated vein. This allows the physician to target the vessels to be treated precisely during the session.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is sclerotherapy painful?
Most patients experience only mild discomfort during injections, which is brief and well tolerated.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of sessions depends on the size and number of veins. Many patients require multiple sessions for optimal results.
When will I see results?
Improvement is often visible shortly after treatment, but full results develop gradually over the following weeks.
Can I walk after sclerotherapy?
Yes. Walking is encouraged immediately after treatment to promote healthy circulation.
Are there any restrictions after a sclerotherapy session (flights, heat, etc.)?
We recommend avoiding long flights for about 1–2 weeks and limiting heat sources (hot baths, saunas, hot tubs) and direct sun exposure for several days to two weeks, as sun exposure on treated veins may increase the risk of temporary skin discoloration.
Are compression stockings required?
Compression stockings are often recommended to improve results and support healing.
Is sclerotherapy safe?
Yes. Sclerotherapy is a well-established, safe procedure when performed by trained medical professionals.
Is sclerotherapy covered by insurance?
Sclerotherapy is not covered by RAMQ. However, the injectable solution used during sclerotherapy may qualify for reimbursement under certain health insurance plans.
Can sclerotherapy prevent new veins from forming?
Treated veins will not return, but new veins may develop over time. Maintenance treatments may be recommended.
