Sclerotherapy
At VivaMD Clinic, we specialize in sclerotherapy, which is a medical technique used to treat varicose veins and spider veins. It consists of injecting a sclerosing solution into the sick vein, which causes it to close and be reabsorbed by the body. Compared to other therapeutic approaches to varicose veins, sclerotherapy is not invasive, requiring minimal recovery time. It often prevents the need for a surgical intervention for varicose veins.
