Sclerotherapy with Asclera Vein Removal Treatment

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure done by Dr. Karina Bibicheff to treat uncomplicated spider veins and uncomplicated reticular veins. The treatment involves the injection of a solution into the affected veins. At Vita, Dr. Bibicheff uses FDA approved Asclera solution (pronounced a skler ah).

What Is Asclera?

Asclera (polidocanol) Injection is a prescription medicine that is used in a procedure called sclerotherapy and is administered by Dr. Bibicheff to treat two types of veins:

• Uncomplicated spider veins (very small varicose veins less than 1 mm in diameter);
• Uncomplicated small varicose veins (1 to 3 mm in diameter) known as reticular veins.

How Does Asclera Vein Removal Treatment Work?

       Varicose and spider veins occur when the tiny valves inside the veins stop working, interfering with the normal flow of blood. This can cause swelling, discoloration, and discomfort to the patient. When injected into the affected varicose vein or spider vein, Asclera Vein Removal Treatment irritates the vein's interior lining, causing them to sclerose, or harden, and close. As a result, blood is prevented from flowing into these malfunctioning veins, eliminating the swelling, bulging, and discomfort often associated with varicose veins.

Is Asclera Vein Removal Treatment effective?

Asclera (polidocanol) Injection has been used Europe to successfully treat spider and varicose veins in the legs for decades. In this time, over 5 million treatments have been performed with a very high success rate.

How is the Asclera Vein Removal procedure performed?

The Asclera solution is injected carefully into the affected area and allowed to disperse through the veins. Most procedures take less than an hour and are performed on an outpatient basis. Several treatments might be necessary for desire results.

What is the recovery like?

       Recovery time after Asclera Vein Removal Treatment is typically minimal, with most patients resuming normal activities immediately after their procedure. Following treatment compression stockings should be worn continuously for 2-3 days and for 2-3 weeks during the day time. For two to three days following the treatment, avoid: heavy exercise, sunbathing, long plane flights and hot bath or sauna.

Are there any possible side effects to Asclera Vein Removal Treatments?

All sclerosing agents are associated with certain risks. Dr. Bibicheff can discuss any side effects or risks during your complimentary consultation.
