Smaller Veins
Spider veins are small, dark-colored veins that typically appear on the face or legs.
Aesthetic Symptoms
Most spider veins are harmless—but many patients prefer to collapse them to enhance their appearances.
Asclera Treatment
Dr. Heird uses Asclera sclerotherapy to collapse spider veins, which can reduce their visibility to eliminate them entirely.
Larger Veins
Varicose veins are larger, appearing blue or purple and bulging beneath the skin’s surface.
Aesthetic & Medical Symptoms
While often considered merely unsightly, varicose veins can also cause more serious health problems.
Varithena Treatment
Varithena sclerotherapy uses a foam solution specially formulated for varicose vein treatment.
Sclerotherapy can quickly alleviate discomfort associated with spider and varicose veins, like pain, burning, or itching.
Within 6 weeks of your sclerotherapy appointment, the targeted vein begins to fade and may completely disappear.
Once we collapse a vein with sclerotherapy and your body begins to reabsorb the tissue, you can enjoy permanent results.
When you schedule your sclerotherapy in York with Advanced Vein & Laser Center, you can expect the entire treatment session to take between 40 and 60 minutes. The procedure itself will only take between 20 and 30 minutes. The rest of the time, Dr. Heird prepares the treatment, educates you about what to expect, and gives you a tailored aftercare plan.
Afterwards, you can return to your day. We encourage you to walk around frequently to encourage healthy circulation after your procedure.
After your sclerotherapy, you can expect your results to develop over the next 4 to 12 weeks. While sclerotherapy may not completely eliminate problem veins, most patients see 75 to 80% of their problem veins significantly lighten and/or disappear entirely.
Almost all our treatments, including sclerotherapy, are medically necessary. Thus, most insurance providers cover them. That’s because spider and varicose veins may indicate more serious venous insufficiencies or medical conditions, and a sclerotherapy can help treat these issues and relieve painful symptoms.
