Venous Sclerotherapy in Katy for Clearer, Healthier-Looking Legs
Say goodbye to unsightly spider veins and small varicose veins with safe, effective venous sclerotherapy in Katy. Our board-certified specialists offer minimally invasive treatment that improves both the appearance and health of your legs—often in less than 30 minutes.
Gentle, Effective Relief for Spider Veins and Minor Varicose Veins
Venous sclerotherapy is a simple, non-surgical procedure that targets small varicose and spider veins by injecting a special solution directly into the affected veins. This causes the vein walls to collapse and be naturally absorbed by the body—improving both comfort and cosmetic appearance over time.
At Advanced Cardiology, we offer expert sclerotherapy treatment in Katy, serving nearby areas including Sugar Land, Richmond, and the Greater Houston region. Whether you’re dealing with aching legs, visible veins, or both, our team is here to help restore your confidence and circulation with proven, patient-centered care.
Your treatment is overseen by Dr. Adnan Khalid, a board-certified cardiologist with specialized experience in vascular conditions. Dr. Khalid will carefully evaluate your vein health and customize a treatment plan to deliver safe, lasting results—all in a comfortable, outpatient setting.

Why Cardiologists Recommend Venous Sclerotherapy
Chronic leg discomfort and visible veins aren’t just cosmetic concerns—they can signal underlying vein dysfunction. Cardiologists often recommend venous sclerotherapy for patients experiencing early signs of venous insufficiency, especially when lifestyle changes or compression therapy haven’t provided enough relief.
Common Reasons for Sclerotherapy Treatment:
Visible Spider Veins or Small Varicose Veins
Why It Matters: These may indicate weakened or damaged veins just beneath the skin’s surface.
How Sclerotherapy Helps: It collapses the faulty veins, rerouting blood to healthier ones and improving circulation and appearance.
Leg Heaviness, Aching, or Fatigue
Why It Matters: These symptoms are often the result of blood pooling due to poor venous return.
How Sclerotherapy Helps: By closing off abnormal veins, it relieves pressure and discomfort in the legs.
Swelling and Mild Skin Changes
Why It Matters: These can be early signs of chronic venous insufficiency.
How Sclerotherapy Helps: It prevents further complications like skin discoloration, ulcers, or deep vein problems.
If you’re tired of leg discomfort or hiding unsightly veins, our Katy and Sugar Land locations offer expert care backed by the latest techniques in outpatient vein treatment.
What Sclerotherapy Results May Achieve
Sclerotherapy isn’t just about smoother-looking legs—it can significantly improve your comfort, mobility, and vascular health. Once treated, the targeted veins are gradually absorbed by the body, and symptoms tend to fade within weeks.
What You Can Expect from Treatment:
-
Reduced Appearance of Spider and Varicose Veins: Most patients see a 50% to 90% improvement in treated veins after just a few sessions.
-
Improved Leg Comfort: Relief from heaviness, burning, or aching that interferes with daily life.
-
Better Circulation: By redirecting blood to properly functioning veins, your legs feel lighter and more energized.
-
Prevention of Future Complications: Treating problematic veins early can reduce your risk of skin changes, blood clots, or ulcers.
At Advanced Cardiology, we use medical-grade sclerosing agents and proven techniques to ensure safe, precise results tailored to your vein condition.
Your care will be led by Dr. Adnan Khalid, who combines vascular expertise with a cardiologist’s understanding of how vein health impacts your overall circulation. Every step of your treatment is guided by clinical precision and a commitment to your long-term wellness.
Is Sclerotherapy Right for You?
If you’re bothered by spider veins or small varicose veins that are visible through the skin—especially in your legs—sclerotherapy might be the ideal solution. This non-surgical treatment is typically recommended when:
-
You want a cosmetic solution for visible spider or reticular veins
-
You experience burning, aching, or leg fatigue after long periods of standing
-
You’re looking for a quick, outpatient procedure with minimal recovery
-
You’ve tried compression therapy but are still struggling with symptoms
-
Your veins have been evaluated via ultrasound and do not require surgical correction
Early treatment can reduce symptoms and prevent these minor vein issues from developing into more serious vascular conditions.
