Sclerotherapy
Laser Vein Treatment is a safe and effective way to treat unwanted visible spider veins, often located on the legs and face. It is minimally invasive with very little risk for side effects. A medical provider will access the vein areas you want addressed and first determine if you are a candidate for the treatment. If you are a candidate, it will be determined if Laser or Sclerotherapy would be the best option.
We offer Sclerotherapy with a FDA-approved sclerosing agent called Asclera as well as cutting edge laser technology that targets and removes spider veins. This procedure offers quick and easy treatment of spider veins and small varicose veins. Patients can expect minimal discomfort, with very little to no downtime post-treatment! Generally, 1-2 treatment sessions are all that is needed for optimum results. We recommend evaluation after three weeks of treatment to see if additional treatments are necessary or desired. Our knowledgeable medical team is available to discuss the benefits of Sclerotherapy with Asclera so don't hesitate to get in touch today!
Sclerotherapy is an effective treatment for reducing unsightly spider veins, blue leg veins and tiny facial veins. Results can be seen within two to six weeks of the initial procedure, and there's frequently no need for any recovery or downtime afterwards. You can expect minimal pain during your treatment session and you'll likely see some redness or bruising afterwards. However, once you've been given the all clear by your doctor you can get back to normal activities right away with only mild restrictions - avoid anything too strenuous for the first 24 hours following treatment. All in all, sclerotherapy offers great results with minimal disruption.
As with any medical procedure, safety is always a top priority, but there's no need to worry! This safely-performed procedure is typically used on legs and feet, and although it does pose some risks, they are minimal. The most common side effect is a short-lived reddening and local swelling of the skin which usually subsides within 24 hours. Don't let your self-consciousness about veins prevent you from enjoying your best life; consider sclerotherapy for an effective and safe alternative!
