The science
What is sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a procedure that uses an injectable sclerosing solution to treat spider and reticular veins.
During the treatment, a precise, small amount of the solution is injected directly into the affected vein. The solution works by irritating the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to collapse and eventually fade from view as the body naturally reabsorbs it.
How it works
- 1
Inject
A small dose of sclerosing solution is placed directly into the spider or reticular vein with a fine-gauge needle.
- 2
Collapse
The solution irritates the vessel lining, causing the vein to seal and collapse.
- 3
Fade
Your body gradually reabsorbs the treated vein, so it fades from view over time.

What to expect.
During your consultation at our Jacksonville locations — Cassat Avenue or Baymeadows Road — we evaluate your veins to determine whether sclerotherapy is the right approach for you.
Post-treatment
We recommend a short walk immediately after your session and the use of compression stockings for a few days to optimize results and ensure safety.

Spider veins (and the slightly larger reticular veins) are small, web-like clusters of blood vessels visible just beneath the surface of the skin — most commonly on the legs. They are usually a cosmetic concern rather than a medical one, but they are a common cosmetic and comfort concern. At your consultation we'll evaluate your veins to confirm sclerotherapy is the right approach for you.
