Vein Treatment
What is Vein Treatment?
Are you bothered by enlarged veins known as varicose veins or small, dilated blood vessels that are visible through the skin? If so, you may be able to benefit from vein treatment at North Valley Cosmetic Surgery. Vein treatment, also called sclerotherapy, is a procedure to eliminate varicose and spider veins for a boost in confidence.
Vein treatment offers the following benefits:
- Reduction of spider veins.
- Reduction of varicose veins.
- Results without surgery.
- Short recovery period.
- Minimal side effects.
Candidates for Vein Treatment
Healthy individuals who are self-conscious about their veins and are seeking a non-surgical solution can often benefit from our vein treatments. Whether you’re dealing with visible veins or discomfort, our Scottsdale vein clinic offers effective options tailored to your needs. It’s important to note that individuals who are pregnant or breastfeeding may not be eligible for this treatment. To determine if you are a good candidate for sclerotherapy or other vein treatments, a consultation at our Scottsdale, AZ office is necessary. Our vein specialist will guide you through the process and help you find the best solution.
The Procedure
Prior to your vein treatment, you will be asked to avoid certain medications such as the antibiotics Tetracycline and Minocin, anti-inflammatory medications like aspirin and ibuprofen, and the steroid Prednisone.
To begin this, your skin will be cleansed, and a special solution is injected directly into the vein. This causes the lining of the blood vessel to swell and stick together, cutting off the blood flow. With time, the vessel turns to scar tissue and fades from view. The number of veins treated in one session will depend on the location and size of the veins, as well as your overall medical condition. Treatment takes 30-45 minutes to complete.
