No More Varicose and Spider Veins




















Sclerotherapy is known as a treatment for varicose veins and spider veins. The procedure involves administering FDA approved sclerosing agent (Polidocanol) into the affected vein. This solution causes the vein to produce scarring and then collapsing. This will force the blood flow to reroute into healthy veins instead of damaged ones. The damaged vein will eventually just get absorbed again into the local tissues and over time fades away.

Sclerotherapy is commonly the preferred treatment for small varicose veins.

Sclerotherapy is the solution

• This procedure will help to improve the look of varicose veins and spider veins.
• It can also help with related symptoms including aching, night cramps and inflammation.
• Your legs will look nicer, sexier and smoother, bringing your confidence back.


Asclera® (Polidocanol) Injection is a FDA approved prescription medicine that is used in a procedure called sclerotherapy to remove unwanted veins on your legs.

• It works by irritating the endothelium, the cells lining the inside of the vessels, causing them to constrict and close.

• It is administered by a healthcare provider only to treat varicose veins and spider veins.

Asclera® is not used for varicose veins more than 3 mm in diameter.
