Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy in Dallas, TX

What Is Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy?

At Dallas Laser and Vein Center, ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy is an advanced minimally invasive treatment used to treat larger varicose veins and underlying vein disease.

This procedure is often recommended for patients who are not ideal candidates for Endovenous Laser Treatment (EVLT®) or for those who continue to have residual varicose veins after EVLT® treatment.

Before treatment, a detailed ultrasound evaluation is performed to determine the most effective treatment approach based on the location and severity of the affected veins.

How Does Ultrasound-Guided Sclerotherapy Work?

During the procedure, ultrasound imaging allows the physician to view veins beneath the surface of the skin that cannot be seen with the naked eye. This added visualization improves precision and accuracy when treating deeper or larger veins.

A specialized solution is injected directly into the targeted vein using a very small needle. The solution causes the vein walls to collapse and seal shut, redirecting blood flow to healthier nearby veins.

Because the procedure is guided by ultrasound technology, it is considered highly effective for treating larger veins and complex venous conditions.

What Is the Difference Between Ultrasound-Guided and Traditional Sclerotherapy?

Traditional sclerotherapy is commonly used for smaller visible veins near the surface of the skin, such as spider veins.

Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy differs in that real-time ultrasound imaging is used to locate and treat deeper veins that are not visible externally. This allows for greater treatment precision and makes the procedure especially useful for larger varicose veins and underlying venous insufficiency.

Small spider veins—particularly facial veins—may be better treated with laser technology depending on the individual case.

What Can I Expect During Treatment?

Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy is performed in the office and generally does not require anesthesia or sedation.

During treatment:

• Ultrasound imaging is used to identify the affected veins
• A specialized solution is injected into the diseased veins
• The veins collapse and gradually fade over time
• Compression stockings may be recommended after treatment

Procedure time varies depending on the number and complexity of the veins being treated, but most sessions last between 15 minutes and one hour.

Following treatment, patients may be asked to temporarily avoid activities that increase circulation or heat exposure, including:

• Intense exercise
• Hot baths or saunas
• Alcohol consumption

Your physician will provide personalized aftercare instructions based on your treatment plan.

When Will I See Results?

Results from ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy develop gradually. Treated veins may initially appear darker or more noticeable immediately after treatment, before beginning to fade.

Most patients begin seeing improvement within several weeks, with continued results developing over approximately 6–8 weeks.

While treated veins are often permanently closed, the procedure does not prevent new varicose veins from developing over time.

Are There Any Risks or Side Effects?

Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy is considered very safe when performed by an experienced physician. Side effects are generally mild and temporary, but may include:

• Bruising
• Temporary discoloration
• Mild tenderness or swelling
• Small visible clusters of tiny veins (“matting”)

Rare complications can occur, which is why following all post-treatment instructions is important for optimal healing and results.
