London Ontario Sclerotherapy

How Effective is London Ontario Sclerotherapy?

You've suffered with unsightly varicose and spider veins for long enough - isn't it time you got your legs back? Help improve the look and feel of your legs with London Ontario sclerotherapy treatments. Sclerotherapy helps diminish the look of large, twisted varicose veins, often removing them completely over time. London Ontario sclerotherapy could be the solution you've been looking for, so what are you waiting for? Check out this article to learn more about the effectiveness of this treatment before contacting Medical Aesthetics to book your procedure.

How successful is sclerotherapy?

Studies have shown that London Ontario sclerotherapy works well for most patients. It is estimated that as many as 50 to 80 percent of the veins that are injected with the sclerotherapy treatment are eliminated after just one session. Only a small percentage of patients who have had sclerotherapy do not respond to the injections at all. If you are one of the few people who don't respond to our London Ontario sclerotherapy treatment, don't worry - there are a number of other methods that your Medical Aesthetics physician can recommend.

How long before you see results?

London Ontario sclerotherapy patients normally see results within three to six weeks after the initial treatment. Larger veins will often take longer to respond to the treatment, with noticeable results taking upwards of three to four months to become visible. Luckily, once the veins respond to treatment, they rarely reappear. New varicose veins may appear over time, especially if your job involves standing or sitting for long periods of time. If needed, you may return to Medical Aesthetics for additional London Ontario sclerotherapy treatments.

Tips to help you recover quickly from a London Ontario sclerotherapy treatment Once your London Ontario sclerotherapy is complete, your Medical Aesthetics practitioner may recommend one or more of the following tips to speed up your recovery time.

• Wear support hosiery: Wearing supportive hosiery following your London Ontario sclerotherapy will help compress the treated veins and encourage the shrinking process.
• Avoid direct sunlight: patients should avoid direct sunlight, including tanning beds, for a minimum of 48 hours following the treatment.
• Avoid hot baths: Patients should not take hot baths or sit in a whirlpool or sauna following the treatment. You may take showers, but the water should be cooler than usual. When washing the London Ontario sclerotherapy injection site, use a mild soap and lukewarm water.
• Avoid aspirin, ibuprofen, and any other anti-inflammatory medications: If you experience any discomfort following the procedure, our practitioners recommend taking Tylenol.
• Get active! Moderate exercise, like walking, jogging, and light aerobics will help increase the blood flow to the treated areas and speed up your recovery.
