Sclerotherapy
Micro-injection of medical sclerosant solutions to collapse and permanently eliminate spider veins and small broken vessels.
Micro-Vascular Clearance.Restored Leg Elegance.
Sclerotherapy at 22Luna is the gold-standard medical treatment for eliminating unsightly spider veins (telangiectasias) and blue reticular veins on the legs and body.
Using ultra-fine micro-needles, a specialized biocompatible sclerosant agent (Polidocanol / Sodium Tetradecyl Sulfate) is injected directly into diseased vessels, irritating the endothelial lining to seal the vein closed. Over the following weeks, the body naturally reabsorbs the collapsed vessel.

Vascular Transillumination
Polarized light maps feeder veins and superficial spider webs.
Micro-Lumen Cannulation
An ultra-fine 30G needle enters the vessel lumen under optical magnification.

Frequently Asked Questions
The most common questions about this treatment, answered plainly.
Will spider veins come back after treatment?
Treated veins that close and reabsorb do not come back. However, new spider veins can develop over time due to genetics or standing, which can be managed with occasional touch-ups.
Why do I need to wear compression stockings?
