Microscleropathy Training Course

Microsclerotherapy is treatment for therapists and healthcare professionals who are seeking to master a cutting-edge approach to diminishing the appearance of leg veins, including spider and thread veins.

Microsclerotherapy is a sophisticated, minimally invasive procedure that has stood the test of time, boasting over eight decades of clinical application. This course offers an in-depth exploration of the technique, ensuring participants are equipped with the knowledge and skills to offer a solution to those self-conscious about these benign vascular issues.

Despite their harmlessness, spider and thread veins can significantly affect individuals' confidence and comfort. Statistics reveal that approximately 50% of women and 10% of men will experience these vascular concerns during their lifetime, highlighting the need for effective treatment options.

Typically clients will need 2-3 sessions which are designed to permanently remove these veins.
