Vein Treatment (Sclerotherapy) in Savannah, GA
Sclerotherapy at Anew Med Spa & Clinic in Savannah, GA is a minimally invasive, highly effective treatment for spider veins and small varicose veins. The procedure involves injecting a specialized solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and gradually be reabsorbed by the body. As the treated veins fade, blood is naturally redirected to healthier surrounding veins, improving overall circulation and the cosmetic appearance of the skin.
Sclerotherapy can be performed on the legs, thighs, ankles, and face, making it one of the most versatile vein treatments available. Most patients can resume normal daily activities immediately after their session. If you’re ready to address spider or varicose veins, call (912) 376-9496 to book your appointment today.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is a good candidate for vein treatment (sclerotherapy)?
Good candidates are adults experiencing spider veins or small varicose veins who are not pregnant and do not have a history of significant blood clotting disorders. Individuals who have tried other methods without success or who prefer a non-surgical solution are particularly well-suited for this treatment.
When will I see results from sclerotherapy?
Results typically become visible within 3 to 6 weeks of treatment. Larger varicose veins may take up to 3 to 4 months to fully fade. Multiple sessions may be needed for comprehensive coverage.
How long do sclerotherapy results last?
Results are long-lasting. However, new veins may develop over time due to genetics or lifestyle factors, and periodic maintenance treatments can address any new veins as they appear.
Is there any downtime or side effects?
Most patients resume normal daily activities immediately after the procedure. Mild bruising, temporary redness, or slight swelling at injection sites may occur but typically resolves within a few days.
What should I do before and after sclerotherapy?
Before treatment, avoid anti-inflammatory medications and aspirin to reduce bleeding risk. After treatment, wear compression stockings as directed by your provider and avoid strenuous activity for a few days to support optimal healing.
What can I expect during the sclerotherapy procedure?
A fine needle is used to inject the sclerosing solution directly into the targeted veins. The procedure is quick and involves only mild discomfort — similar to a pinprick — and most patients find it very tolerable. You can return to your daily activities immediately after your appointment.
How many sclerotherapy sessions will I need?
The number of sessions varies depending on the extent and location of the veins being treated. Many patients achieve satisfactory results in 1 to 3 sessions, with follow-up treatments scheduled as needed.
