What is Injection Sclerotherapy?

Cryo SclerotherapyInjection sclerotherapy is the quality standard for spider veins treatment. Using a special light, the vein is isolated and a small amount of medication (sclerosant) is injected inside the vein. The medication "closes" the vein and stops the flow of blood.

Although the appearance of treated spider veins improves (diminishes) immediately, the spider veins are slowly absorbed by the body over a course of several weeks or months. Typically, several veins can be treated in one session and more than one session may be required depending on the extent of your spider veins. It is also possible that repeat injections in a single vein may be necessary since some spider veins are more "stubborn" than others.

What is VeinGogh?

vein gogh the doctors smVeinGogh is a breakthrough treatment technology for spider veins that allows us to treat even the smallest and the curviest vein where sclerotherapy may not be an option. An extremely tiny needle focuses energy (ohmic thermolysis) directly onto the spider vein and closes it immediately.

This VeinGogh spider vein treatment is not dependent on skin types, like lasers and other light-based therapies, and provides a superior solution for sealing vessels that have shown resistance to other treatment options. The tissue on the skin surface is rarely affected and many patients report minimal, if any, discomfort compared to laser or intense pulsed light therapies used elsewhere to remove spider veins. As with sclerotherapy, over time the body absorbs the "closed" veins.

Generally, patients will require sclerotherapy treatment first, as it is still the first option in treating spider veins. VeinGoghtreatment is then recommended for any spider veins remaining that meet the criteria in size. Rest assured, Alsara Vein Clinic uses the most sophisticated technology available and highly skilled staff to meet your needs for spider vein removal treatments.

Are Alsara Vein Clinic's Spider Vein Treatments Right for Me?

We offer Free Consultations to allow you to meet with our Board Certified Vein Specialists. We'll provide you with a detailed screening examination and a discussion of the best treatment options for your spider veins. Everyone is different, so it is critical you schedule a consultation with one of our vein specialists.

It is important when scheduling your spider vein treatment to consider the timing in which treatments are performed in relation to sun exposure. We recommend avoiding sun exposure (including tanning beds, etc.) 1-2 weeks after a treatment is performed. In addition, we recommend using a sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or greater for 3 months post-treatment.

Spider Veins

Spider Veins

What are Spider Veins?

spider veins treatmentSpider veins are the smaller versions of varicose veins caused by the same risk factors as underlying varicose veins. Based on the size of the surface veins (commonly referred to as “spider veins”), veins may be bluish in color (venulectasia), green (reticular veins) or red/purple (telangiectasia).

How are Spider Veins Treated?

At Alsara Vein Clinic, we have almost every treatment modality for the treatment of spider veins. Over the years, we have realized that “inside-out” is the best approach to give you an optimal, long-lasting outcome. We first scan the affected areas using ultrasound looking for any “feeder” veins beneath the skin surface. If present, we use Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy to close an entire cluster of spider veins at its source beneath the skin that is otherwise not visible from the outside. Any remaining surface veins are then treated using Injection Sclerotherapy (the Gold Standard) by injecting medication (Sclerosant) directly into the affected surface veins. We use Ohmic Thermolysis or Surface Laser for any remaining veins that are not eligible for sclerotherapy due to their size or location (near ankle or foot). These modalities use a spectrum of light that targets spider veins from the outside and closes them by heating the hemoglobin within the affected veins.

Occasionally, veins near the surface of the skin are too large to treat with sclerotherapy and not small enough to treat with Ohmic Thermolysis or Surface Laser. Microphlebectomy is a minimally invasive treatment to remove larger surface veins including varicose veins that appear on the skin surface. This is not to be confused with surgical vein stripping, which is a much more invasive procedure performed in the hospital setting under general anesthesia and traditionally was used to remove larger, deeper varicose veins. Microphlebectomy is performed in the comfort of our office. Using very fine instruments, the unwanted bulging veins are removed through minuscule openings without the need for sutures and typically without causing any scarring. The patient is able to resume normal activities quickly and is immediately rid of the unsightly veins that are removed permanently.

We go to extreme lengths to make sure the treatments are safe and effective, but as painless as possible.
