Spider Vein Treatment Clearwater / Tampa Bay

The discovery of spider veins is never a welcome realization for anyone. Though these small, thin blue blood vessels are harmless, many women feel self-conscious about the marks on their legs. Rather than hiding your gorgeous legs in pants all summer, come see one of our providers at Ultimate Image Cosmetic Medical Center to receive sclerotherapy treatment and banish your spider veins for good.

What is Sclerotherapy?

This long-proven treatment for spider veins has actually been in use since the 1930s! It involves injecting a salt solution directly into targeted spider veins. The salt solution irritates the lining of the blood vessel, which then swells and clots. Over time, that blood vessel turns into scar tissue, fades from sight, and forces blood to be rerouted through healthier veins.

All of the science aside, the bottom line for you is that receiving sclerotherapy treatment will reduce and remove your spider veins so that you can once again flaunt your legs.

What is the Procedure Like?

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive, relatively painless procedure. Depending on the extent of treatment, it can last anywhere from 15 minutes to an hour. Most patients achieve maximum success with sclerotherapy after 3-6 treatments. The targeted veins will fade within a few weeks, with full results showing within a month or two.

During the treatment itself you will lie on your back with your legs slightly elevated. One of our providers at Ultimate Image will gently insert the salt solution into each vein you want to target. Though some patients experience minor stinging at this time, any pain quickly dissipates.

Who Can Undergo Sclerotherapy?

Nearly anyone can take advantage of this incredible technology, but pregnant women must wait until after delivery to perform the procedure. If you have any medical conditions, take prescription medication, smoke, or take oral contraceptives, make sure to let your doctor know before the procedure.

After the Procedure

After your sclerotherapy is completed, you can walk around like normal. It’s actually very important to move immediately after your procedure to prevent the formation of blood clots and ensure maximum results. You will need to wear graduated compression stockings over the treated area up to three weeks afterward to maintain pressure, but you can still return to normal activities.

This is a safe and effective procedure that offers a simple solution to the spider veins you wish could just disappear. Now you finally can at Ultimate Image! Call us today to reclaim your gorgeous, unmarked skin.
