Sclerotherapy

For most people, not much. It's a small pinch as we place the solution into each vein, and a session takes about 30 minutes. Some people feel a brief sting or cramp as it works, which usually passes quickly. If you're nervous, just tell us and we'll keep you comfortable.

The treated veins can start to fade over the following few weeks for most people, as your body gradually clears them. Some veins respond faster than others, and results vary. We'll check in along the way to see how things are settling.

Most people need a series of sessions to get the best result, often spaced a few weeks apart. The exact number depends on how many veins you have and how they respond. We'll give you an honest estimate at your consult and adjust as we go.

Sclerotherapy for superficial spider veins is priced per session on our Jane menu. Because most people need a series, we'll talk through how many sessions might suit you and give you a clear plan at your consult. Beauty Club members get member pricing.

Sclerotherapy has been used for many years to treat spider veins when it's done by trained professionals. Our team assesses you first, reviews your health history, and works under the medical oversight Ontario requires. We'll go over the details and any questions at your consult.

Not much. You can usually head right back to your day. We'll likely ask you to wear compression, keep moving with light walking, and skip intense exercise, saunas, and long sunbathing for a day or two so the treated veins can settle.

Sclerotherapy treats the veins you have now, and those treated veins can fade long-term for many people. New spider veins can still appear over time, though, because the same tendencies remain. A lot of our clients come back for the occasional touch-up.

Sclerotherapy is for superficial spider veins on the legs. For tiny broken capillaries and redness on the face, IPL is usually the better-suited option. At your consult we'll look at where your veins are and point you toward the right treatment.

Usually, yes. Compression stockings can help the treated veins settle and support a better result for many people. We'll let you know how long to wear them and answer any questions about how it all works at your visit.

It isn't right for everyone. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, have certain circulation conditions, or have larger varicose veins, we may suggest a different approach or a referral. That's exactly why we assess you first, so we can be honest about the right fit.

Often, yes. Some clients pair sclerotherapy with other skin treatments for an overall result they love. We'll map out what makes sense for you and the right order to do things, with no pressure to add anything you don't want.

We use a medical sclerosing solution designed to gently close superficial veins so they can fade. Our team reviews your health history and any allergies before anything is planned, and we'll tell you exactly what we're using at your visit.

Most people heal well with no lasting marks. Temporary bruising or a bit of darkening at the treated spots can happen and usually fades over the following weeks. We'll talk through how to support healing and what's normal as you go.

We do! Our clinic is in Innisfil, right between Barrie and the rest of Simcoe County, so we see lots of clients from Barrie, Bradford, and beyond. Easy to get to, free parking, and a warm welcome every time.

You're so welcome here. Plenty of our sclerotherapy clients are first-timers. We take it slow, explain everything, answer every question, and only start when you feel ready. No judgment, ever.

This treatment is not for everyone, and safety comes first. We do not treat you if you are pregnant, if you have an active blood clot, or if you are allergic to the solution we use. We also need your full history if you have ever had a DVT or a clotting disorder, or if you are going to be immobile for a stretch, such as after surgery or a long flight, because those raise the risk of complications. Bring all of this to your consultation so we can decide together whether the timing is right.
