Sclerotherapy at D’Cate Aesthetics & Medicine
At D’Cate Aesthetics & Medicine, our sclerotherapy treatments offer an effective solution for eliminating unwanted veins and achieving a smoother, clearer complexion. Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure that targets and treats varicose and spider veins with precision.
What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy involves injecting a special solution directly into the affected veins. This solution causes the veins to collapse and gradually fade from view. It’s a well-established treatment known for its effectiveness in reducing or removing problematic veins.
Benefits of Sclerotherapy:
- Effective Vein Removal: Targets and eliminates both varicose and spider veins.
- Minimally Invasive: No need for surgical incisions or lengthy recovery times.
- Quick Procedure: Treatments are relatively short and can often be done during a lunch break.
- Minimal Downtime: Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after the procedure.
Our sclerotherapy treatments are tailored to address your individual concerns, ensuring optimal results with minimal discomfort. Whether you’re looking to reduce the appearance of visible veins or alleviate related symptoms, our skilled team is here to help you achieve smoother, more beautiful skin.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I expect during sclerotherapy treatment?
Sclerotherapy is an outpatient medical procedure performed from the comfort of a provider office. You will lie down with your legs elevated. The treatment area will be cleansed, and your provider will begin slowly injecting a solution into your vein. Because the needle is so fine, anesthetic is not required. After withdrawing the needle, your provider will apply pressure to the treatment area before moving on to the next vein.
What should I expect during the post-treatment phase?
At the conclusion of your sclerotherapy treatment, we may have you continue to lie on your back for several minutes before getting up to walk around. You will be given some compression stockings to wear in the weeks following your treatment, during which time you will be encouraged to resume normal activities, including walking. You should begin to notice results within a few weeks. Your provider may request a follow-up visit to evaluate your treatment results and discuss options for additional treatments if necessary.
