Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure that treats spider veins and small varicose veins by injecting a sclerosing solution directly into the affected veins, causing them to collapse, close, and gradually fade from view. The treatment addresses telangiectasias (spider veins), reticular veins, and small varicose veins primarily on the legs. It is both a cosmetic treatment for unsightly veins and a medical treatment for symptomatic venous insufficiency.

The Sclerotherapy course is open to physicians (MD/DO), nurse practitioners, physician assistants, registered nurses, and other licensed healthcare professionals whose scope of practice permits them to perform injectable procedures. Both primary care providers looking to add aesthetic services and aesthetic practitioners seeking to expand their treatment menu will benefit from this training.

Yes, Empire's sclerotherapy course includes live patient demonstrations by expert faculty followed by supervised hands-on injection practice where you treat actual patients with spider veins and reticular veins under direct guidance. This live patient training ensures you develop real-world injection skills and build confidence in sclerosant delivery before performing procedures independently.

The course covers the major FDA-approved sclerosing agents used in clinical practice, including sodium tetradecyl sulfate (Sotradecol), polidocanol (Asclera), and hypertonic saline solutions. You will learn the mechanism of action, appropriate concentrations, volume protocols, and clinical indications for each agent, as well as foam sclerotherapy preparation techniques.

Most patients require two to four sclerotherapy treatment sessions spaced several weeks apart to achieve optimal cosmetic clearance, though the exact number depends on the extent and distribution of their vein disease. The course teaches you how to assess treatment response, plan retreatment sessions, and set realistic patient expectations.

Yes, sclerotherapy is a highly profitable procedure with relatively low supply costs, modest equipment requirements, and strong patient demand. Spider vein treatment appeals to a broad demographic, generates consistent repeat visits, and serves as an excellent gateway service that introduces patients to your practice for additional aesthetic treatments.

The most common side effects include temporary bruising, hyperpigmentation along treated veins, and telangiectatic matting. Rare but more serious complications include skin ulceration, allergic reaction, and deep vein thrombosis. The course provides thorough instruction on complication prevention strategies, early recognition, and appropriate management protocols.

Sclerotherapy requires minimal specialized equipment — primarily transillumination devices for vein visualization, appropriate micro-needles, sclerosing agents, and compression supplies. Unlike many aesthetic technologies that require expensive capital equipment, sclerotherapy has a very low barrier to entry in terms of equipment investment.
