4. Who is Sclerotherapy For?
A person who has varicose veins may find that sclerotherapy is a good choice to help get rid of them. However, this procedure should not be taken lightly and other natural remedies should be tried before resorting to this procedure. Sclerotherapy is best for those people who suffer from venous insufficiency and have difficulty controlling it using compression stockings and other home remedies.
Those who are obese may also benefit from this procedure as well. Healthy individuals who have superficial unsightly veins that are of small caliber, of four mm or less may also be candidates for sclerotherapy.
In order to determine whether or not a person would benefit from sclerotherapy, the area where the defective vein is located will first be identified as well as the drainage pattern of it. This will fully determine whether or not a person is a candidate for the procedure.
