At Ballentyne Medical Aesthetics, we are proud to offer Asclera® (polidocanol) injections—a clinically proven, FDA-approved treatment for eliminating unsightly spider and reticular veins in the lower legs. Asclera sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive procedure that delivers long-lasting cosmetic improvement with minimal discomfort and downtime.
What Is Asclera Sclerotherapy?
Asclera is the only FDA-approved liquid polidocanol formulation in the U.S. for treating uncomplicated spider veins (≤1 mm in diameter) and reticular veins (1–3 mm in diameter) in the lower extremities. It works by damaging the inner lining of targeted veins, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body over time, leaving your skin clearer and smoother.
Why Choose Asclera® Injection?
- Gentle and Effective: Polidocanol injections are known for their low incidence of pain and irritation compared to older agents like saline.
- Quick Treatment: Sessions typically last 15–45 minutes, and most patients can resume normal activities shortly after.
- Minimal Downtime: Post-treatment care includes wearing compression Minimal Downtime: Post-treatment care includes wearing compression
- Visible Results: Improvement is often noticeable within weeks, with optimal results achieved after multiple sessions.
Can You Perform Sclerotherapy at Home?
Sclerotherapy, including treatments with Asclera, should only be administered by trained medical professionals in a clinical setting. Attempting sclerotherapy at home is unsafe and can lead to serious complications such as skin necrosis, blood clots, or improper vein closure. At Ballentyne Medical Aesthetics, our licensed providers ensure your treatment is both safe and effective.
