Worth It

Spent: $350 in North Carolina

Sclerotherapy has been the most effective cosmetic treatment I have undergone. For the cost, it yields great results and they are lasting...over three years passed before I needed a touch up. If you have spider veins, you will be very pleased with this procedure.

Downtime is minimal. The most annoying part is wearing support hose and not being able to take a shower for 48 hrs. Do it on a Friday and winter is the best time because of the hose you must wear for 48 hrs :)

My sclerotherapist was excellent and my results lasted three or more years. I have had one follow up treatment at a discounted cost. My legs still look great and I am 41 yrs old.

Wait...you were required to wear support hose & not able to shower for 48 hours? Nothing of that was mentioned after i recieved my scletotherapy treatment...

Hello. Just wanted to tell my story in that I had my first Sclero injections yesterday, and I too, was told to wear a compression garment (bought from clinic direct). I will keep it on for 3-4 days as it does not bother me and I want to achieve the best possible results. Will keep you all posted as I am alittle concerned after reading some of the negative reviews.

Hello again. Vein has disappeared on lower leg, but quite badly bruised & it also looks like a couple of burn marks where I was injected - from the solution used I guess. Starting to heal, but I do have a hard small lump on back of my thigh. Wondering if this is normal? Not returning to see dr until 26th of this month. Views on this hard lump much appreciated....gosh I hope it's going to be worth it....
