At our Quebec Ste-Foy clinic, sclerotherapy remains the gold-standard treatment for addressing varicose and spider veins. The procedure involves injecting a specialized solution into the veins, causing them to close and fade away, enhancing the appearance of your skin while promoting healthier circulation.
A detailed consultation with our specialists ensures a personalized and safe approach to achieve your desired results. Patients can return to normal activities immediately, with compression stockings recommended to optimize the outcome.
At Dermapure, our team of experienced physicians is dedicated to providing world-class care and expertise in aesthetic medicine. Focusing on enhancing natural beauty, we prioritize treatments that deliver subtle yet impactful results tailored to each individual’s unique needs.
While sclerotherapy can significantly improve varicose vein concerns, it’s important to note that outcomes can vary depending on the patient. All images shown are for reference only and do not guarantee specific results.
During your consultation, ultrasound is used to map the veins and discover the source of pressure causing the varicose veins. Often the source of the spider or varicose veins are too deep to see with the naked eye. This consultation stage allows for the development of a safe, accurate and effective treatment plan for lasting results. As with any medical consultation, current fees apply.
Before and after photos are an important step in the treatment process, as it allows for visualization of the evolution of your results over time.
Lasting 20 minutes, sclerotherapy treatment may give rise to a slight tingling or a feeling of heat during the session. This sensation disappears quickly after treatment. As the treatment involves injection into the veins, naturally some bruising should be anticipated. Bruising due to any cause on the legs generally resolves over 3 weeks, and patients should refrain from unprotected sun exposure until the bruises clear.

*Consultation fee with a physician may apply.
At your initial consultation, the physician will determine how many treatments are required per leg. The number of sclerotherapy treatments necessary depends on the extent of the vein disease and we are limited to the quantity of medication per visit. Closure of the affected veins can be visible within several days however treated veins tend to fade within a few weeks to several months. Support stockings are recommended to promote healthy circulation in the lower limbs and prevent and minimize recurrence. Patients can return to most usual activities post treatment.
Sclerotherapy is contraindicated in pregnant and breastfeeding women as well as a known allergy to the sclerotic agent used. Special consideration is required in people with medical conditions that make them more vulnerable such as hypercoagulability (blood clotting), a history of a deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism.
Varicose veins on the legs, ankles and feet can be treated with sclerotherapy.

Visit The Online StoreSclerotherapy is a non-invasive procedure for treating varicose and spider veins by injecting a saline or chemical solution into affected veins, causing them to collapse and absorb into the body. Blood naturally reroutes to healthier veins, improving circulation and reducing the appearance of varicose veins.
Sclerotherapy is the "gold standard" for treating visible diseased veins due to its effectiveness, safety, and minimally invasive nature. It's versatile, suitable for various vein sizes, and involves minimal discomfort. Additionally, sclerotherapy typically yields long-lasting results, improving cosmetic appearance and symptoms associated with varicose veins. Compared to surgical interventions, sclerotherapy has a lower risk of complications and requires little to no downtime.
Sclerotherapy is effective for treating a variety of veins, including varicose and spider veins. Varicose veins are more prominent, bulging veins often found on the legs, ankles, and feet, while spider veins are smaller, web-like veins closer to the skin's surface. The procedure directly targets these veins, causing them to collapse and eventually fade.
Compression stockings help promote blood flow and prevent blood from pooling in the treated veins, aiding the healing process and reducing the risk of complications. Compression stockings can also help minimize swelling, bruising, and discomfort following the procedure. They support the treated veins, helping them stay collapsed and facilitating the recovery process.
During the initial appointment, the specialist uses ultrasound mapping. This technology allows them to visualize the veins beneath the skin's surface, even those too deep to see with the naked eye. By pinpointing the location and severity of the veins, the specialist can tailor the treatment plan to address the patient's specific needs.
