Sclerotherapy
Sclerotherapy is a very popular method of eliminating spider veins in which a solution, called a sclerosing agent is injected into the veins. This causes an irritation to the inner lining of the vein resulting in closure of the vein. A very small gauge needle is used to perform the injections and most patients consider the discomfort to be insignificant. The majority of persons who have sclerotherapy performed have satisfying results.
Unfortunately there is no guarantee that sclerotherapy will be effective for you. In rare instances the condition may become worse after sclerotherapy treatment. The number of treatments needed differs from patient to patient, depending on the extent of the problem.

Testimonial 1
I have always had issues with varicose veins in my legs – but when I got pregnant with my son they got significantly worse. Following my pregnancy I went to see Dr. Nelson to see what she could do to help me. I can now lift up my son much easier and I feel more comfortable wearing shorts and skirts. I feel so much better now!

I’m a nurse – I work long hours and am on my feet pretty much all day. I went to see Dr. Nelson and had the laser procedure done on my legs. Almost immediately I felt relief after the procedure. My legs feel 110% better!

Dr. Nelson gave me my activities back – going to the club, dancing, playing tennis with my friends, or even just walking in the amusement park. It’s such an immediate relief – I can’t thank her enough.
