What are thread veins ?
Thread veins are purple coloured prominent veins in the skin seen most commonly in the legs. They can be very easily treated by sclerotherapy (injection).
Sclerotherapy (injections) for thread veins
Microinjections of thread veins are not painful, the injections are barely felt. The technique works by sticking the walls of the veins together thus obliterating them.
Milder skin reactions may also be seen. These take the form of brown staining of the skin at the sight of the injection.
