Diminish Unsightly Veins
If you’re like millions of other Americans, you may be suffering with unsightly spider veins.
Commonly caused by heredity, aging, pregnancy, hormonal changes and obesity, spider veins appear as red or blue irregular blood vessels just under the surface of the skin. They are generally a cosmetic concern but these veins may produce symptoms that are bothersome, such as aching, burning, swelling and night cramps.
Simple Procedure - Visible Fading
Sclerotherapy is a procedure in which the veins are injected with a sclerosing solution causing the veins to close or collapse, fade away and become absorbed by the body. Visible fading can be expected about two weeks after the first treatment.
Sclerotherapy is performed in the office and generally requires multiple treatments to eliminate veins. The majority of those treated will be cleared or at least see a good improvement (85% improvement is considered “industry standard”)
Optimal Results Based On Individual Condition
Every individual is unique and there is unfortunately no guarantee that sclerotherapy will be effective for you. Sclerotherapy never achieves one hundred percent perfection but significant fading is possible, as mentioned above.
At the Aesthetic Laser Center & Medi-Spa, we strive to optimize results by thoroughly understanding your condition and using adjunct therapies (such as laser treatments) to supplement sclerotherapy, depending on the condition of your veins. With a personal consultation, Dr. Barad will be able to examine your situation and discuss which treatment regimen is best for your needs.
