SCLEROTHERAPY WITH ASCLERA
Sclerotherapy is a medical procedure used to eliminate varicose veins and spider veins. It involves an injection of a solution, such as Asclera™, directly into the vein irritating the interior walls of the vein, causing them to constrict and close. This prevents the flow of blood through the affected vein and can effectively eliminate the swelling, bulging, discomfort, and discoloration, which may be caused by small varicose veins or spider veins.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT ARE VARICOSE VEINS AND SPIDER VEINS?
Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins that usually appear on the legs and can cause pain, swelling, and discomfort. Spider veins are smaller, web-like veins that are closer to the surface of the skin and are often red or blue in color.
WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR SCLEROTHERAPY?
Sclerotherapy is suitable for individuals with small to medium-sized varicose veins or spider veins who are in good overall health. It is important to consult with a medical professional to determine if Sclerotherapy is the right treatment option for you.
WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE LIKE?
During the procedure, a medical professional will inject a solution directly into the affected vein using a fine needle. The solution irritates the vein walls, causing them to constrict and close. The procedure is generally well-tolerated and does not require anesthesia.
IS SCLEROTHERAPY PAINFUL?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. You may feel a mild burning or stinging sensation at the injection site, but it is generally well-tolerated. The discomfort subsides quickly after the procedure.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO SEE RESULTS?
The results of Sclerotherapy vary from patient to patient. Some individuals may see improvement within a few weeks, while others may require multiple sessions to achieve the desired results. It is important to follow the recommended treatment plan and attend follow-up appointments for optimal results.
ARE THERE ANY SIDE EFFECTS OR RISKS?
Sclerotherapy is a safe procedure, but like any medical treatment, it carries some risks. Common side effects include temporary bruising, swelling, or redness at the injection site. In rare cases, allergic reactions or skin discoloration may occur. It is important to discuss any concerns with your medical professional before undergoing the procedure.
HOW MANY SESSIONS OF SCLEROTHERAPY ARE REQUIRED?
The number of sessions required depends on the severity of your condition and the desired results. Some individuals may achieve their desired outcome with just one session, while others may require multiple sessions spaced several weeks apart. Your medical professional will create a customized treatment plan based on your specific needs.
