Asclera - Vein treatment

Asclera is an FDA-approved medication injected to treat spider and small varicose veins

 It works by damaging the cells lining inside of blood vessels.

Our doctor will  determine if this treatment is right for you

How long is each Asclera® session?

A typical sclerotherapy session lasts 15 to 45 minutes. 

 

What should I expect after being treated with Asclera®?

Maintain graduated compression

  • 2-3 days after treatment of spider veins

  • 5-7 days after treatment of reticular veins

  • For extensive varicosities, longer compression treatment is recommended

  • Post-treatment compression is necessary to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis.

Encourage walking

  • 15-20 minutes immediately after treatment

  • Daily for a few days

What should I avoid right after treatment?

For two to three days following the treatment, please avoid:

  • Heavy exercise

  • Sunbathing

  • Long plane flights

  • Hot bath or sauna

You should not be treated with Asclera® if you:

  • Have a known allergy to polidocanol
