Two Days Before Your Scheduled Treatment

Avoid any of the following:

• Aspirin or other blood thinning drugs, herbs and supplements including Vitamin E, Gingko biloba
• Arthritis medicine (e.g. Ibuprofen) or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. These medications may increase bruising.
• Alcohol
Alcohol impairs circulation, which can affect healing.
• Smoking
-Smoking depletes the body of vitamin C, which will impair healing.

The Night Before Your Scheduled Treatment

Do not apply any creams, lotions, oils, or self-tanners to your legs.

The Day of Your Scheduled Treatment

1. One and a half (1-1/2) hours before your appointment, eat a light meal or snack. This will prevent your blood sugar levels from dropping suddenly, making you hungry during the procedure.

2.. Bring loose-fitting shorts or a leotard to wear during the procedure. Also bring a long skirt or long loose-fitting slacks to wear after the procedure.

3.  If you are taking birth control pills or estrogen, please inform us about it.

Sclerotherapy requires repeated injections of a proprietary solution into the veins. The solution irritates the lining of the veins and causes it to eventually dissolve.

This procedure is commonly performed on the legs, arms, chest, and back. These are the areas where most people suffer the most from the spider veins. Spider veins and broken capillaries can occur anywhere in the body, including on the face.

Satisfactory results are seen with a few treatments in some cases to several treatments in others. How many treatments you need depends on the severity of the condition. Within several weeks after the treatment, the unattractive veins begin to disappear. However, full results may take up to several months. This process may need to be repeated.

 Are There Any Side Effects?

During the transition time, there may be reddish blotches or patches of pigmentation or discoloration. Complications are unusual. Most of the discoloration effects will disappear within 12 months following procedure. Most patients are satisfied with the results of sclerotherapy.

When you want to decrease the effects of aging, there are many options. One of them is to tighten the skin. Tightening is a treatment used on sun-damaged or aging skin. It is effective for smoothing away wrinkles around the eyes and acne scars.

The beauty of Laser Skin Tightening is that it involves no downtime and has minimal discomfort. After the treatment, patients can return to work or go to dinner without anyone knowing they have just received a treatment. This treatment could even be done over a long lunch hour.

What You Should Know about Your Skin and Wrinkles

The skin consists of three layers: 1) the outer layer called the epidermis, and 2-3) the inner layers (dermis and subcutaneous). The main structural element of the dermis is a protein called collagen. This protein provides strength for the skin. As we get older, we produce less collagen, which eventually leads to wrinkles, fine lines and bags in the skin.

Why Should You Consider the Laser Skin Tightening Procedure?

The Laser Skin Tightening procedure is non-invasive. It creates tightening in the collagen fibers found in the deeper layers of the skin. This leads to improved facial contours and healthier collagen. With its new revolutionary technology, Tightening improve your skin’s appearance and enhances the contours of your body by reshaping your skin’s innermost structures. This leads to healthier, younger looking skin.

 

Sclerotherapy – Broken Capillary and Vein Therapy


Little things can go wrong in the body as we age. For example, small blood vessels like veins and capillaries can break or become larger than normal. This can happen in people with a disease known as telangiectasia, and even in those without the disease. The areas of the body where this occurs most often include the thighs, around the knees, on the calves and on the ankles. It can also happen unexpectedly in the chest, back and on the arms. These unsightly spider veins can occur anywhere in the body.

When the breakage or enlargement occurs, the red veins or capillaries show through the skin. Sometimes these broken veins or capillaries are called spider veins. Other times, they are called varicose veins. The veins may be red, pink, violet or blue in color.

And if you have them, you know that it’s an annoyance that you really want to eliminate. That’s where SCLEROTHERAPY comes in to bring benefits. Sclerotherapy is Leg Vein Therapy. But it’s also Vein Therapy for Veins in the Chest, Arms, Back, and even on the Face.

Many people are concerned that if the veins are removed, there will be a potential problem later on. However, these veins do not serve any specific purpose and can be removed without posing any health risks.
