Sclerotherapy Treatment Specialist in Beverly Hills and Hollywood, CA

Asclera is an injection used to treat spider veins, reticular veins, and small varicose veins (1 to 3 mm in diameter) in the lower extremities. The active ingredient in Asclera injection is polidocanol, a sclerosing agent, which is available in 0.5% and 1% formulations.
 
When injected into the affected vein, this prescription intravenous medication works by irritating the blood vessel lining, causing it to collapse and eventually be reabsorbed by the body. This process redirects blood flow to healthier veins and improves the appearance of the treated areas
 
The treatment process involves injecting Asclera directly into the targeted veins using a fine needle. In most cases, multiple injections are necessary; however, the specific number of sessions depends on the amount and size of veins being treated. The procedure is minimally invasive, requires no anesthesia, and has a quick recovery time. Asclera is a fast and efficient treatment approach to addressing unwanted veins, whether it’s performed to relieve discomfort or for cosmetic reasons.

Asclera is one specific type of sclerosing agent used to treat unwanted veins. There are many types of sclerotherapy treatments for spider and varicose veins, including ultrasound sclerotherapy, liquid sclerotherapy, and foam sclerotherapy. As Asclera is injected, it’s categorized as a form of liquid sclerotherapy.
 
Asclera is preferred by many healthcare providers due to its effectiveness. In addition, this treatment approach has a low incidence of side effects, making it a popular choice.
 
While sclerotherapy encompasses various techniques for treating unwanted veins, Asclera is a great option for improving the appearance of small to medium-sized veins, such as spider veins, reticular veins, and smaller varicose veins. However, if you have larger or longer varicose veins, alternative sclerotherapy approaches may be recommended, specifically foam sclerotherapy.

To achieve the best outcomes through sclerotherapy treatment, multiple treatment sessions are often necessary. The right frequency and number of sessions for you depend on the severity and type of the veins being treated. In most cases, three to five Asclera injections are usually needed to treat cosmetic concerns, and sessions are spaced a few weeks apart.
 
During your consultation session, the specialist will assess your concerns and create a personalized treatment plan. They will evaluate the extent of your vein concerns and determine the estimated number of sessions required to achieve the desired results.
 
After each session, you will notice a gradual improvement in the appearance of your veins. However, full results can take several weeks to a few months to become visible, as it takes time for the body to absorb the treated veins. After 26 weeks, 88% of clinical study patients reported that they were satisfied or very satisfied with the results of Asclera treatment.

The amount of time you will need to wait for the full results of Asclera treatment to become apparent varies depending on the size and type of veins being treated. Within two to three weeks, the treated veins usually start to fade. During this period, the sclerosing agent works by irritating the lining of the vein walls, causing them to narrow and collapse, eventually being reabsorbed by the body.
 
For many patients, the full results can take up to three to six months to become fully visible after their final Asclera session. In some cases, patients require follow-up treatments to address any remaining veins and to maintain the results. While the treated veins are permanently gone, additional veins may appear over time.
 
To achieve the best results with Asclera treatment, it’s important to listen to the specialist’s recommendations regarding the treatment schedule. On average, it takes three to five sessions to address cosmetic concerns, but it may take up to 10, depending on what’s being treated.
