Why Choose Dr. Avaliani for Asclera Vein Removal?

Spider veins and reticular veins affect millions of people, causing visible purple, blue, and green vessels that impact confidence and comfort. Dr. Avaliani uses Asclera (polidocanol), an FDA-approved sclerosing agent, to directly treat and eliminate these veins through precise injection. The medication causes affected veins to shrink, collapse, and gradually fade from view over the following weeks.

What Is Asclera Sclerotherapy?

Asclera (polidocanol) is an FDA-approved prescription sclerosing agent used to treat two types of veins: uncomplicated spider veins (1mm or less in diameter) and uncomplicated reticular veins (1–3mm in diameter). It is injected directly into affected veins using an ultra-fine needle, causing the vein walls to seal shut. Blood is then naturally rerouted to healthier veins, and the treated vessels gradually shrink and fade from view.

At Dr. Avaliani’s practice, every Asclera sclerotherapy session is performed with meticulous precision. The medication is injected directly into each targeted vein using an ultra-fine needle. The polidocanol damages the inner lining of the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Blood naturally redirects to deeper, healthier veins, and the treated vessels progressively fade over the following weeks.

How Asclera Sclerotherapy Works

The Asclera treatment follows a straightforward, well-proven protocol:

Dr. Avaliani maps and evaluates your spider and reticular veins, identifying vein size, depth, and distribution to create a targeted injection plan

Asclera (polidocanol) is injected directly into each targeted vein using an ultra-fine needle with very slight, transient stinging

The sclerosing agent damages the inner lining of the vein, causing it to seal shut, collapse, and begin to be reabsorbed by the body

Blood naturally reroutes to deeper, healthier veins while the treated vessels progressively shrink and fade from view

Over 2–3 treatment sessions, veins progressively diminish for smoother, clearer skin free of visible veins

Vein Types & Areas We Treat

Spider Veins (Legs)

Fine, web-like purple and red veins on the legs that are visible through the skin surface. These small vessels (1mm or less) respond excellently to Asclera injection, typically fading within weeks of treatment for clearer, smoother-looking legs.

Reticular Veins

Slightly deeper blue-green veins (1–3mm in diameter) that may appear slightly bulging beneath the skin. These feeder veins often supply spider vein clusters and must be treated for lasting clearance. Asclera effectively treats reticular veins at their source.

Facial Veins

Visible spider veins on the face, particularly around the nose, cheeks, and chin. These delicate veins can be carefully treated with Asclera or laser, restoring an even, clear complexion. Dr. Avaliani selects the ideal approach based on vein size and location.

Thigh Veins

Spider and reticular veins on the inner and outer thighs that create a web-like pattern visible through the skin. Asclera sclerotherapy effectively clears thigh veins, restoring confidence in shorts, skirts, and swimwear.

Behind the Knees

Spider veins behind the knees are extremely common and highly visible. This sensitive area responds well to carefully administered Asclera injections, clearing the visible vein network for smoother-looking legs from every angle.

Ankle & Calf Veins

Spider veins around the ankles and calves that become noticeable with open shoes and shorter hemlines. Asclera sclerotherapy effectively treats these lower leg veins, allowing you to show off your legs with confidence.

About Asclera Sclerotherapy

There are several options for treating spider and reticular veins. Here’s why Asclera sclerotherapy is an excellent choice:

FDA-Approved Asclera®
Asclera (polidocanol) is an FDA-approved sclerosing agent specifically designed for spider and reticular veins. It works by directly damaging the vein lining, causing collapse and gradual reabsorption. Proven safe and effective in extensive clinical trials with minimal side effects.
Precise Injection Technique
Dr. Avaliani uses ultra-fine needles to inject Asclera directly into each targeted vein with precision. Both spider veins and their deeper reticular feeder veins are treated in the same session for comprehensive, lasting results rather than cosmetic surface treatment alone.
Combination Approach
For complex vein patterns, Dr. Avaliani may combine Asclera sclerotherapy with Elite+ Nd:YAG laser treatment. This dual approach addresses veins from both inside (sclerotherapy) and outside (laser), providing the most comprehensive clearance for stubborn or extensive vein networks.

Does It Hurt?

Your Comfort Options (We Tailor This to You)

Asclera injections involve very slight stinging or burning as the medication enters each vein, but the sensation is quick and transient. Dr. Avaliani uses ultra-fine needles and works methodically through the treatment area. Most patients tolerate the procedure very well.

After treatment, compression stockings are worn briefly and walking is encouraged to promote circulation. Soreness, swelling, redness, and mild bruising are the most common side effects and resolve within days. Pro-Nox (nitrous oxide) is available for patients who prefer additional relaxation during treatment.

Pricing Information

Asclera sclerotherapy pricing depends on the number of treatment areas, vein density, and the number of sessions needed for optimal clearance.

Price Range:
Most patients achieve optimal results in 2–3 sessions, as there is a limit to how much medication can be used per session

During your consultation, Dr. Avaliani will evaluate your veins, discuss your goals, and provide transparent pricing. Treated veins progressively fade over the following weeks, and each session builds on the previous for cumulative improvement.
