Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
When it comes to Sclerotherapy, what is the best treatment plan for legs?
Spider Vein Treatment
Mar 4, 2021
It depends on how many spider veins you have on your legs. If your legs are covered in spider veins, you probably want to treat one area/leg first and then come back to the next area. We have patients that have concentrated areas (behind the knees) or other areas that bother them more than others. We focus on those first, and then address other areas of the legs. It is a personal preference, but after sclerotherapy we have all of our patients wear compression stockings for one week….
How to treat small but prominent veins beginning to bulge on back of hand?
Causes of visible hand veins
Mar 2, 2021
Venous conditions can happen anywhere on our bodies, although some areas are more prone than others, including the legs and the hands. There are several reasons that make our hands particularly vulnerable to venous conditions. First, because they are an extremity and we use our hands for everything. Secondly, the more elastic your skin, the more youthful looking they are. As we age, our hands lose a protein called elastin and lose some firmness and tightness. The third reason that makes our…
Can small red thread veins on the arms be treated?
Arm Veins
Mar 2, 2021
Hand and arm veins can be treated with laser, sclerotherapy, micro phlebectomy and filler. One of the most effective forms of treatment for hand veins is sclerotherapy. This medical procedure involves the injection of a sclerosant solution into the prominent veins, which causes irritation and their eventual collapse. Sclerotherapy is usually the preferred method for small veins as long as you can get a small needle into the vein, as it offers the most effective results with a simple office…
Are there any treatment options for these crazy looking veins that I have?
Spider Vein Treatment
Mar 2, 2021
Spider veins can be erased with sclerotherapy where a chemical is injected into the fine veins, causing them to seal and disappear. Many people who have spider veins may feel grateful that they aren’t varicose veins, but that doesn’t mean that anyone likes having discolored lines on their legs or body. As the name suggests, spider veins form a web of deep red or dark blue veins on your legs or torso. They often worsen as a person ages, but they can occur in a person of any age. There may be…
Is there something that I can do to fix these unsightly veins?
Sclerotherapy for Chest Veins
Mar 2, 2021
One of the most effective treatments for chest veins is sclerotherapy. This involves injecting a sclerosant solution into the veins using a very fine needle. The treated vein collapses and gradually disappears. This treatment can be performed in the doctors office and takes less than 30 minutes. Some patients need only one session to get desired results, while others might need a couple of sessions.
Can I remove these prominent hand and foot veins?
Prominent hand and foot veins
Jan 18, 2021
You should make an appointment with a vein specialist (i.e. vascular surgeon) and have a consultation for your vein concerns. Before treatment, a medical evaluation should be performed to ensure you are a good candidate for vein treatment. Varicose and spider veins are a common problem found in approximately 25% of the population. A common misconception is that they tend to occur only in older patients and women. In reality, they can be found in men and women of any age.
I’ve been seeing these big blue veins pop up frequently the last 6 months. What are they & why are t
As we get older veins can become more prominent
Jan 18, 2021
We make the leg veins work much harder than in any other part of our body. Leg veins normally carry blood from the feet back to the heart. Vein valves keep blood flowing in one direction. However, in many people, the vein valves weaken and allow blood to flow backwards towards their ankles. This is called venous reflux. Medical compression stockings can help support weakened vein valves and improve blood flow. You may want to consider seeing a vein specialist and having venous ultrasound to…
