(prHWY.com) December 4, 2012 - Florida, FL -- Florida, December 04, 2012 - Spider veins are red, blue or grey web-like streaks known spider veins due to their similarity in look and feel to a spiders web. You may notice them near varicose veins on the calves of your legs or as thread-like streaks on your thighs or your face or other areas of your body.
Vein Centers - The solution causes the unwanted veins to collapse and fade away. Utilizing Asclera, an approved sclerosing medication, a certified Plastic Surgery offers a safe, effective, and relatively painless treatment that eradicates spider veins. Give yourself the legs you've always wanted and schedule a consultation with a Plastic Surgeon
If you anticipate that you will be undergoing the treatment during your first visit, then you must bring store bought specialty leg compression garments. If the areas are only below the knee, then the garments must be knee high. If the areas include the thigh, then the garments must be thigh high. The garments must provide at least 20-30 mmHg compression. Truform and Jobst offer very nice low profile garments in many different colors. These specialty garments may be found at your local medical supply store. The doctor will review and discuss your medical history. This includes why you want the procedure and the desired outcome; a detailed focused review of any current medical conditions, drug allergies, family history, medications, alcohol, tobacco, and previous procedures performed near the area to be treated.
For an additional cost, you will be offered a post procedure VitaMedica recovery regimen to help decrease bruising and swelling and improve the healing process. You will go home shortly after the procedure is complete. You are encouraged to walk. You will remove any dressings and can start showering the next day. You may feel some cramping in your legs for the first couple days. The discomfort is usually temporary and does not require prescription medication.
Sclerotherapy - This is the most preferred method over laser to treat larger spider veins as well as small varicose veins. This treatment usually requires repeated visits to your doctors office with anywhere from 5 to 40 injections each visit. Cotton balls and compression tape is applied during the procedure and tight-fitting support hose may be prescribed to guard against blood clots and to promote healing.
