Testimonials

A selection of comments received by The Leg Clinic:

  • “Since being referred to Jane I have never looked back. An hour or less once a week for treatment - which is not painful at all - over a course of week(s) recommended by Jane has worked wonders for me.”
  • “I look forward to swimming again, going to the gym and summers when I can wear shorts or even a swim suit without any horrible remarks being made! ”
  • “I am a lady of 52 years of age and can honestly say that for the last 12 years or so have been so embarrassed and made to feel ashamed of my thread veins that I had almost given up all hope. I had for many years been repeatedly told that that was it - there was nothing that could be done - until I was referred to Jane that is! ”

Treatment of Thread Veins

Sclerotherapy

The treatment is called sclerotherapy. It is a simple, straightforward procedure, giving excellent results. It involves a series of small injections with a tiny needle of a 'sclerosant' solution to the affected areas. The solution sets up an irritation in the vein wall, which, on compression of the vein, causes it to close and therefore fade. It is a safe and well-established practice.
