The cost of sclerotherapy varies from physician to physician and can also depend on the amount of solution used and the length of the procedure. In addition, there are different kinds of sclerotherapy such as foam, liquid, and ultrasound-directed.

Before any treatment you should have an evaluation with a standing ultrasound. If you have spider vein and not varicose veins, sclerotherapy is the best treatment. Cost can vary and your decision should be based on the providers' experience, not price.

The cost of these treatments varies from city to city, practitioner to practitioner. Some places charge by the 15 or 20 minute treatment, some charge by areas to be treated. Our clinic treats for about 35 to 40 minutes or if a safe volume of solution has been reached. Typically an area of veins can take 3-5 treatments. Successful treatment will also include treating the underlying "feeder" reticular veins if present. Special lights are used to see and treat these. We also recommend compression stocking for up to 7 days after.
