Is everyone suitable for sclerotherapy?
Almost all people can undergo sclerotherapy safely. We cannot treat ladies who are pregnant or breast-feeding. We are also very cautious with diabetic clients and those with medical conditions that cause a tendency to bleeding or poor healing. A detailed medical questionnaire will be completed prior to your treatment and you will be advised as to whether it is safe to proceed.
Instructions after treatment
We advise the use of an elasticated tubular bandage (tubigrip) for 24 hours. We prefer clients to avoid very warm baths and heavy aerobic type exercise for a few days after the treatment. It is also advisable to avoid rubbing creams and lotions into the skin for two or three days. Aspirin and large amounts of alcohol should also be avoided either just prior to or for two days after treatment.
