Sclerotherapy in Denver, Co
Sclerotherapy is used to treat a wide variety of veins such as:
- Spider Veins
- Small veins
- Varicose Veins
- Broken Capillaries
- Feeder vein
- Leg veins, hand veins, chest veins
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical technique that is used to treat medium sized veins, spider veins, or broken capillaries. These veins are common on the thighs or leg but may also be seen on the face or body.
A tiny needle is used to introduce the sclerosing agent into the vein. The agent displaces the blood in the vein and irritates the inside lining into itself. Your body then absorbs it and it disappears. A typical treatment takes from 20–40 minutes and includes multiple injections. There are a number of different “sclerosing agents” that can be used in many different concentrations that vary on the type of vein.
Before & After
Micro-Foam Sclerotherapy Treatment
This is a type of sclerotherapy where the sclerosing agent is mechanically foamed before injected. The advantage of this technique over regular sclerotherapy is that less concentrated solutions can be used due to the increased efficiency, making this an excellent treatment to get rid of spider veins.
The patented system changes the physical properties of the sclerosing agents making them more effective in targeting the affected segments of the troublesome leg veins. This results in less bruising and quicker recovery.
Denver Duplex-Guided Sclerotherapy Treatment
Duplex-guided sclerotherapy is a technique the physician can use to more accurately control your procedure. It can be used with both regular sclerotherapy and with microfoam sclerotherapy.
