Sclerotherapy of Spider Veins |
| Spider telangiectasias are small veins easily seen on the surface of skin. Although associated with aging, they may simply be considered a product of heredity. Spider veins are commonly treated on the legs and around the nose. | |||
| Sclerotherapy is a procedure in which a solution is injected into a vein, causing irritation of its lining, and causing it to subsequently disappear. | |||
| Most people return directly to work or normal activity following treatment. Mild compression is usually used for 1 to 3 days. Exercise is restricted for 48 hours. Most people see results after 2-3 weeks. | |||
| Dorothy Hupman RN, MSN - Dot is a registered nurse with over 19 years experience devoted to a variety of skin treatment procedures. She worked as the Clinical Nurse Specialist in Dermatology at Emory University Clinic and Hospital. |
