Techniques of sclerotherapy for sunburst venous blemishes.
Sunburst varicosities of the lower extremities are unattractive and objectionable to many women. The treatment and eradication by sclerotherapy is simple, effective, and safe. The sclerosing agent of my choice is hypertonic saline since it is easily available, nonallergenic, inexpensive, and very effective.
