Using advanced technology, we target and break down these unwanted veins without harming the surrounding skin.
Spider Veins
Varicose veins
During your one-on-one consultation, we explore how sclerotherapy in Florence can reduce the appearance of your unwanted veins so you can regain confidence in your skin.
We will inject the sclerosing agent into the unwanted veins. Apart from the slight pinch of the needle, you shouldn’t experience any discomfort.
After treatment, we’ll apply compression through a stocking or a bandage. Your veins will collapse over time and absorb into the body, so blood can reach healthier vessels.
We’re here to help guide your aesthetic options. Use our Treatment Planning Tool

People who benefit most from Sclerotherapy generally have noticeable spider veins in their legs, thighs, or ankles. They are typically between the ages of 30 and 60 and don’t have a history of blood clotting issues.
Spider veins can occur for many reasons, including heredity, hormones, obesity, or frequent standing. In most of these cases, we can help reduce these veins during your visit for sclerotherapy in Florence.
You’ll be able to walk around soon after your procedure. This is important, as moving your legs helps prevent blood clots from forming. Most patients resume normal activities the same day as treatment, though some take up to 2 days. We ask that you not participate in any strenuous activity for up to 2 weeks.
The injection site will appear slightly bruised and swollen for a few days. We recommend you wear compression stockings for up to 2 weeks.
Mild stinging or burning sensations are common during the injection, but last only a few seconds. Apart from these sensations, there is no discomfort. We do offer local anesthesia for an added level of comfort, though most patients do not find it necessary.
The treated veins usually fade within a few weeks after your visit for sclerotherapy in Florence. For some people, it may take a month or more to see full results. Depending on the size of the veins, several sclerotherapy treatments may be necessary.
