At Dermapure Ottawa Downtown, we offer sclerotherapy, a trusted solution for addressing varicose and spider veins. This treatment involves the careful injection of a specialized solution into problematic veins, which causes them to shrink and gradually disappear as your body naturally absorbs them, resulting in clearer, smoother skin.
With sclerotherapy, you can expect a quick, non-invasive treatment with little to no recovery time. This makes it easy to return to your everyday activities, including work and exercise, right after your appointment. Each treatment is tailored to your individual needs, ensuring that your concerns are addressed effectively and safely.
Your journey begins with an in-depth consultation with our expert specialists. During this appointment, we use ultrasound technology to assess the veins that require treatment, allowing us to design a safe and effective plan for you.
Conveniently located in the heart of Ottawa, Dermapure Ottawa Downtown is easily accessible, with paid parking available on-site. Book your consultation now to learn how sclerotherapy can help you take the next step towards feeling more comfortable in your skin.

While sclerotherapy can significantly improve varicose vein concerns, it’s important to note that outcomes can vary depending on the patient. All images shown are for reference only and do not guarantee specific results.
During your consultation, ultrasound is used to map the veins and discover the source of pressure causing the varicose veins. Often the source of the spider or varicose veins are too deep to see with the naked eye. This consultation stage allows for the development of a safe, accurate and effective treatment plan for lasting results. As with any medical consultation, current fees apply.
Before and after photos are an important step in the treatment process, as it allows for visualization of the evolution of your results over time.
Lasting 20 minutes, sclerotherapy treatment may give rise to a slight tingling or a feeling of heat during the session. This sensation disappears quickly after treatment. As the treatment involves injection into the veins, naturally some bruising should be anticipated. Bruising due to any cause on the legs generally resolves over 3 weeks, and patients should refrain from unprotected sun exposure until the bruises clear.
Starting at $200
*Consultation fee with a physician may apply.
At your initial consultation, the physician will determine how many treatments are required per leg. The number of sclerotherapy treatments necessary depends on the extent of the vein disease and we are limited to the quantity of medication per visit. Closure of the affected veins can be visible within several days however treated veins tend to fade within a few weeks to several months. Support stockings are recommended to promote healthy circulation in the lower limbs and prevent and minimize recurrence. Patients can return to most usual activities post treatment.
Sclerotherapy is contraindicated in pregnant and breastfeeding women as well as a known allergy to the sclerotic agent used. Special consideration is required in people with medical conditions that make them more vulnerable such as hypercoagulability (blood clotting), a history of a deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism.
Varicose veins on the legs, ankles and feet can be treated with sclerotherapy.
