Summer days, your favorite dress, or a simple pair of shorts should not come with a side of self-consciousness. Yet, for many of us, the appearance of spider veins on our legs can make us feel like we need to cover up. If you find yourself hesitating to wear certain outfits or feeling less than confident because of these visible veins, we want you to know your feelings are valid.
At Rejuvenations Boutique Medspa, we help you reclaim the freedom to wear what you want with sclerotherapy, a safe and effective treatment designed to restore clearer, more even-toned skin. It is time to stop hiding your legs and start loving them again.
What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is the gold standard medical procedure for treating spider veins and small varicose veins. It is a minimally invasive treatment trusted by medical professionals for decades to deliver reliable, lasting results.
The process involves carefully injecting a special solution, called a sclerosant, directly into the unwanted vein. This solution gently irritates the lining of the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Once closed, the blood naturally reroutes through healthier veins. Over the following weeks, your body absorbs the treated vein, and it gradually fades from view.
What It Treats
Sclerotherapy is the premier treatment for addressing small, visible vascular blemishes, helping you achieve smoother, more uniform skin. Its primary uses are for:
- Spider Veins (Telangiectasias): The small, web-like clusters of red, blue, or purple veins that appear close to the skin’s surface.
- Small Varicose Veins: Smaller, superficial veins that may be slightly raised but are not large or bulging.
This treatment is most commonly performed on the legs, including the thighs, calves, and ankles, where spider veins frequently appear.
The Experience & Results
Your comfort and confidence are our highest priorities. We know that any procedure involving needles can feel intimidating, which is why we take the time it takes to ensure you feel secure and informed. Your appointment begins with a thorough consultation where we discuss your goals, examine the areas of concern, and answer every question you have.
During the treatment, you will rest comfortably while a skilled provider cleanses the area and performs a series of quick, precise injections using a very fine needle. Most clients describe the sensation as a series of tiny pinches.
After the procedure, you will be advised to wear compression stockings for a period to ensure the best results. You can return to most of your daily activities right away, with only minor restrictions like avoiding strenuous exercise for a few days.
Results are not immediate but gradual. You will notice the treated veins begin to fade over several weeks. Depending on the number and size of your veins, a series of treatments may be recommended to achieve your desired outcome. The end result is beautifully clear skin and the confidence to show it off.
Don’t wait any longer to achieve the look you’ve always dreamed of and the confidence you deserve. Let us help you on your path to transformation.

Common Questions About Sclerotherapy
Does the injection hurt?
Most clients tolerate the treatment very well, describing the sensation as a quick, tiny pinch. We use an extremely fine needle to maximize your comfort, and we are always here to support you if you feel nervous.
How many treatments will I need?
The number of sessions depends on the extent and size of your spider veins. While some clients see significant improvement after just one treatment, it is common to need two to four sessions, spaced several weeks apart, to achieve optimal results. We will create a personalized plan for you during your consultation.
Is there any downtime?
There is virtually no social downtime. You can return to your normal routine immediately. The main aftercare requirement is wearing compression garments as directed and avoiding high-impact activities and hot baths for a few days to ensure the veins close properly.
How long until I see results?
The fading process is gradual. You may see improvement within a few weeks, with final results becoming more apparent after a month or two as the body naturally absorbs the treated veins.
Are the results permanent?
Yes, the veins that are successfully treated will not come back. However, sclerotherapy does not prevent new spider veins from forming in the future. We can discuss preventative measures and maintenance treatments if needed.
Is Sclerotherapy safe?
Yes. Sclerotherapy is a time-tested procedure with a long history of safety and efficacy. When administered by a licensed and trained medical professional like Glenda Cunningham, APRN, it is a very safe way to treat unwanted spider veins.
