Asclera®
Spider Vein Removal
Results
Spider Veins typically appear in clusters or widely dispersed single veins.
Clusters: Clusters are easier to treat as the often have stalk that feeds into many small veins. When these are treated, the majority of the cluster will go away with one treatment. Often, a small portion of the cluster will remain and will require a second treatment.
Dispersed: Spider veins that are numerous and widely dispersed are also treated. These veins are often more numerous and require more injection sites.
Permanent: When we remove spider veins with Asclera, these are permanently removed. It is important to know that new spider veins can occur in other areas. When these appear, and new treatment is needed.
Spider Vein Sclerotherapy
Spider vein removal with sclerotherapy is a quick and effective way to permanently eliminate spider veins. This method involves small injections of Asclera directly into the veins, which disrupts the vein and allows the body absorb them over time. The procedure is quick, comfortable and affordable.
Different ways to remove spider veins
At Maui Medspa we use Asclera sclerotherapy, though a variety of treatments exist
Asclera: Using Asclera is a quick and effective method to remove a significant number of small veins in a relatively short amount of time. Made from Polidocanol, this medicine is considered safe for use and works efficiently to disrupt the blood vessel structure.
Hypertonic Saline: Like Asclera, hypertonic saline is an injection that consists of a concentrated salty solution. This particular salt formulation is harmful to the inner lining of the blood vessels, effectively achieving the desired therapeutic effect.
Lasers: A variety of lasers exist specifically designed to effectively remove spider veins. These lasers work by carefully heating up the blood cells or the water contained within the veins to an extremely high temperature, causing the vessel to ultimately close down and removed over time.
