At Vein-ity Vein Care Centers of Kansas, we offer Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy, a precise technique guided by ultrasound that eliminates spider veins and hard-to-reach varicose veins, revealing the clear, confident legs you desire.
Dealing with deeper varicose veins that are resistant to standard treatments can be frustrating. Imagine the confidence of knowing even those hard-to-reach veins are being effectively treated, leading to smoother, healthier legs. Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy enhances the precision of traditional Sclerotherapy by utilizing ultrasound technology to visualize and target veins beneath the surface.
This technique is especially effective for treating larger or deeper varicose veins that might not be visible to the naked eye. The combination of ultra sound guidance and sclerosing solution ensures that the treatment is both accurate and effective, offering relief from symptoms and improving the appearance of your legs with minimal discomfort.

If you’re dealing with deeper varicose veins that are difficult to treat., Consider Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy. Ideal candidates for this treatment include individuals who:
Have larger or deeper varicose veins that are hard to see
Experience discomfort or pain from untreated varicose veins
Want a non-surgical, targeted treatment option
Are seeking a precise and effective solution for vein issues
Here’s what you can expect when you choose Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy at Vein-ity:
Consultation:
We begin with a comprehensive consultation and ultrasound evaluation to identify the problematic veins and determine if Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy is the best approach.
Preparation:
On the day of the procedure, we’ll apply a local anaesthetic to ensure you’re comfortable during the treatment and you will be offered Pro-Nox as an option to ease any anxiety you may be experiencing.
Procedure:
Using real-time ultrasound imaging, we accurately locate the targeted veins. A sclerosing solution is then injected directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and close.
Post-Procedure:
The treated veins will be gradually absorbed by your body, and you’ll notice a significant improvement in both the appearance and comfort of your legs.
Ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy (UGS) differs from traditional sclerotherapy by using ultrasound imaging to precisely target deeper, non-visible veins, ensuring accurate injection of the sclerosant. Traditional sclerotherapy, on the other hand, is typically used for visible spider and varicose veins near the surface, relying on direct visualization rather than imaging guidance.
Using ultrasound for sclerotherapy allows for precise targeting of deeper veins that are not visible on the surface, improving treatment accuracy and effectiveness. It also enhances safety by reducing the risk of complications, ensuring the sclerosant is delivered exactly where needed.
Results from ultrasound-guided sclerotherapy typically start becoming visible within a few weeks, with full effects usually seen after 2 to 3 months. Multiple treatment sessions may be needed for optimal results, depending on the severity of the veins being treated.
