Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat certain varicose veins and veins that may not be easily visible on the skin. The treatment combines ultrasound imaging with a sclerosing medication, allowing a vein specialist to accurately locate and treat the targeted vein.

At USA Vein Clinics, patients typically begin with a detailed vein evaluation to understand their symptoms and identify the veins responsible for abnormal blood flow. Duplex ultrasound imaging can help the specialist assess the size, location, and function of the affected veins before treatment is recommended.

During Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy, the specialist uses real-time ultrasound images to guide a fine needle into the targeted vein. A sclerosing solution or foam is then injected into the vein. The medication causes the treated vein to close, after which the body gradually absorbs it. Blood can then redirect through healthier veins.

This treatment may be considered for patients with symptoms such as aching, swelling, heaviness, itching, or visible varicose veins. The appropriate treatment depends on the patient's vein anatomy, symptoms, and diagnostic findings.

USA Vein Clinics provides personalized vein care using minimally invasive treatment approaches. A specialist can explain whether Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy is appropriate for your condition and discuss other available options when necessary.

If varicose veins are affecting your comfort or daily activities, scheduling a professional vein evaluation can help you understand your condition and explore suitable treatment options.
