Sclerotherapy in Dubai

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive treatment used to reduce and eliminate small varicose veins and spider veins. By injecting a specialised solution into the affected veins, the vessel collapses and gradually fades from view. At Cornerstone Clinic in Dubai Marina, sclerotherapy is performed by experienced specialists who prioritise precision, comfort, and natural looking results.

 

This treatment is ideal for patients seeking clearer, smoother skin on the legs or face, as well as relief from symptoms such as mild aching or heaviness caused by visible veins.

WHAT DOES SCLEROTHERAPY TREAT

Sclerotherapy is effective for:

  • Spider veins
  • Small varicose veins
  • Reticular veins
  • Thread veins on the legs
  • Veins that cause cosmetic concerns
  • Mild symptoms such as itching, burning, or heaviness

 

The treatment focuses on improving both appearance and comfort.

 

HOW THE TREATMENTS WORKS 

Sclerotherapy involves injecting a medical solution directly into the targeted vein. This solution irritates the lining of the vein, causing it to close and eventually be absorbed by the body. Blood naturally reroutes to healthier veins.

 

The procedure includes:

  • A detailed consultation to assess vein size, location, and suitability
  • Gentle injections using very fine needles
  • Treatment sessions lasting around 15 to 30 minutes
  • Immediate return to normal activities

 

Patients typically see improvement over several weeks as the treated veins fade.

 

BENEFITS OF SCLEROTHERAPY 

Sclerotherapy offers several advantages:

  • Minimally invasive
  • No anaesthesia required
  • Minimal to no downtime
  • Effective for both cosmetic and symptomatic concerns
  • Gradual but long-lasting results
  • Safe for a wide range of skin types

It is one of the most reliable treatments for spider veins and small varicose veins.

 

WHAT TO EXPECT DURING THE SESSION 

The procedure is straightforward and usually well tolerated. You may feel a mild tingling or warmth during the injection, which settles quickly. Your specialist may treat multiple veins in one session, depending on your comfort and the extent of the area.

 

After the treatment, compression stockings may be recommended to support the healing process and improve results.

RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE 

Recovery from sclerotherapy is smooth, and normal activities can be resumed almost immediately. For best results, you may be advised to:

  • Wear compression stockings for the recommended period
  • Avoid intense exercise for the first 24 to 48 hours
  • Avoid hot baths and saunas temporarily
  • Walk daily to support circulation

 

Treated veins gradually fade over a few weeks, with some requiring additional sessions depending on their size and number.

 

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR SCELROTHERAPY

You may be a suitable candidate if you:

  • Have spider veins or small varicose veins
  • Want a non-surgical solution
  • Experience mild discomfort from visible veins
  • Prefer a quick treatment with minimal downtime
  • Are looking to improve the appearance of your legs

 

During your consultation, your specialist will ensure that sclerotherapy is the safest and most effective option for you.

 

WHEN RESULTS BECOME VISIBLE 

Most patients begin to see results within 3 to 6 weeks for smaller veins, while larger veins may take several months to fade. The results are long-lasting, especially when supported by healthy lifestyle habits and proper vein care.

 

WHY SCLEROTHERAPY MATTERS 

Treating visible veins can:

  • Improve confidence in wearing shorts, dresses, or swimwear
  • Reduce discomfort or mild heaviness
  • Enhance circulation
  • Prevent progression of vein concerns

 

Early treatment can also prevent the development of larger varicose veins.

After having abdominoplasty, muscle repair, 360 lipo and facial lipo with Dr. Maurizio the results were life changing. He is a true expert who genuinely cares about his patients and provides exceptional after care, all of his clinicians are very experienced and supportive. These procedures are significant and it’s crucial to go to the best experts with strong reputations. Within 4 weeks I was travelling and back to normal, and the procedure was done without drains. I would highly recommend Dr.Maurizio!
