Sclerotherapy is one of the most effective treatments used for spider veins and small varicose veins. In Light Guided Sclerotherapy, a high-intensity, LED-lit hand piece allows the practitioner to pinpoint and anchor peripheral veins for direct and accurate injecting of the sclerosing solution. This procedure involves the injection of a FDA-approved sclerosing solution called Asclera®, which causes chemical endovenous ablation of the vein, which collapses and diminishes in appearance. Patients typically see a visual improvement of 70% – 90% of these vessels disappearing. This procedure is typically the only procedure not covered by your insurance carrier. However, please call us 256-715-7151 for additional information or stop by our Huntsville office today and our insurance coordinator will be happy to assist you!
