Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive injectable treatment used to treat spider veins, thread veins, and small varicose veins. A sclerosing solution is injected directly into the affected vein, causing it to close and gradually fade from view. Common treatment areas include the legs, ankles, and thighs, helping to improve the appearance of visible veins without surgery.
At Dr Nyla Medispa in Mayfair, London, sclerotherapy treatments are performed within a medically regulated setting under the guidance of Dr Nyla Raja and her experienced medical team. Treatment plans are tailored to the location and severity of the veins being treated, with a focus on achieving a clearer, more even skin appearance.

Sclerotherapy FAQs
-
What Conditions Can Sclerotherapy Treat?
-
Sclerotherapy is used to treat spider veins, thread veins, reticular veins, and small varicose veins, typically measuring less than 4mm in diameter. The treatment is most commonly performed on the legs, ankles, and thighs, where visible veins can affect overall skin appearance.
Larger bulging varicose veins are not suitable for sclerotherapy and may require assessment by a vascular specialist. At Dr Nyla Medispa, every patient undergoes a comprehensive consultation with an experienced medical practitioner to assess suitability and determine the most appropriate treatment approach.
-
How Does Sclerotherapy Work?
-
Sclerotherapy is a well-established medical treatment used to reduce the appearance of spider veins, thread veins, and small varicose veins. During treatment, a specialised sclerosing solution is injected directly into the affected vein using a very fine needle. This causes the vein walls to seal together, allowing the blood to be naturally redirected through healthier veins before the treated vessel is gradually absorbed by the body.
Compression garments may be recommended following treatment to support the healing process and optimise results. At Dr Nyla Medispa, sclerotherapy is performed by experienced medical professionals following a detailed consultation and assessment. While treated veins typically do not return, new thread veins can develop in other areas over time.
-
Am I Suitable for Treatment?
-
Sclerotherapy may be suitable for individuals seeking treatment for spider veins, thread veins, reticular veins, or small varicose veins on the legs or other areas of the body. Suitability depends on several factors, including the size and location of the veins being treated, your medical history, and your overall vascular health.
A comprehensive consultation is required before treatment to assess whether sclerotherapy is appropriate for you. In some cases, treatment may not be recommended, including during pregnancy, for individuals with certain circulatory conditions, or for those with a history of blood clots. Your practitioner will discuss your medical history in detail and advise on the most suitable treatment options for your concerns.
-
Is Sclerotherapy Safe?
-
Sclerotherapy is a well-established medical treatment with a long history of use for the treatment of spider veins, thread veins, and small varicose veins. When performed by appropriately qualified medical professionals, it is considered a safe and effective procedure for suitable patients.
At Dr Nyla Medispa, sclerotherapy is carried out by experienced medical practitioners following a thorough consultation and assessment. Patient safety is central to every stage of treatment, with careful treatment planning, precise injection techniques, and personalised aftercare guidance designed to support optimal outcomes.
-
What Are the Possible Side Effects?
-
As with any injectable medical treatment, sclerotherapy can be associated with some temporary side effects. The most commonly reported include mild swelling, bruising, redness, itching, and small injection marks at the treatment site. These effects are generally short-lived and resolve as the area heals.
Less commonly, patients may experience temporary skin discolouration, blistering, or localised irritation. During your consultation, your practitioner will discuss the potential risks and benefits of treatment, assess your suitability, and provide detailed aftercare advice to support recovery and optimise results.
-
Does the Treatment Hurt?
-
Most patients tolerate sclerotherapy well, with discomfort generally being mild and short-lived. As the injections are administered using a very fine needle, many patients describe the sensation as a small scratch or brief sting.
In some cases, particularly when treating larger veins, there may be temporary aching, cramping, or a mild burning sensation during treatment. These effects typically settle quickly, and your practitioner will explain what to expect during your consultation.
-
What Aftercare Is Required Following Treatment?
-
Most patients can return to normal daily activities immediately after sclerotherapy, and gentle walking is often encouraged to support healthy circulation. Compression garments may be recommended following treatment, and your practitioner will advise how long these should be worn based on your individual treatment plan. Cool packs can also be used to help minimise temporary discomfort or sensitivity.
For a short period after treatment, you may be advised to avoid ibuprofen, aspirin, excessive heat exposure, hot baths, saunas, and direct sun exposure to the treated area. Your practitioner will provide personalised instructions based on your medical history and treatment plan. For more detailed guidance on recovery, recommended precautions, and what to expect as treated veins gradually fade, read our guide to sclerotherapy aftercare.
