What is foam sclerotherapy?

Sclerotherapy is used to treat superficial venous incompetence, as well as to reduce varicose veins. And that is literally what it does: it causes the diseased vein to shrink up. Foam sclerotherapy is certainly not a new form of treatment. In fact, the principles of this type of varicose vein treatment were established more than half a century ago. 

Still, modern foam sclerotherapy achieves revolutionary results, bringing relief to countless patients. If you are considering foam sclerotherapy in Los Angeles, feel free to contact us and schedule your very first appointment and examination. 


How is foam sclerotherapy performed?

Foam sclerotherapy is performed using thin needles to inject Varithena®, which is the brand name for a drug under the generic name polidocanol injectable foam. Varithena® is a sclerosant which works by inducing fibrosis inside the affected vein. The purpose of fibrosis or scarring and thickening of the connective tissue is to occlude the lumen of the affected blood vessels. This, in turn, reduces the visual varicosity of the veins. 

Once the vein closes, normal blood flow is restored and the blood starts flowing through the surrounding healthy veins. It typically takes multiple treatments to achieve the desired results.


What are the benefits of foam sclerotherapy?

Efficacy and safety are two of the most prominent benefits that foam sclerotherapy has to offer. When you reach out to us for foam treatment for varicose veins in Los Angeles, you can rest assured you will be under competent care of highly qualified healthcare professionals with vast experience. We take pride in our personalized approach that makes patients feel comfortable with the procedure from start to finish.


Can anyone undergo foam sclerotherapy?

We will run a thorough and careful examination and look into your medical history so we can decide on the optimal type of varicose vein treatment for you. Foam sclerotherapy is performed using the sclerosant (Varithena®) mixed with air. The alternative way to perform sclerotherapy is to use the sclerosant in liquid form. However, foam is more effective when treating larger, longer veins.

The use of Varithena® should be avoided in patients who are known to be allergic to the ingredients of the drug. If you’ve googled “foam sclero los angeles” or “foam sclero beverly hills” and our name came up, you can rest assured we will perform your initial consultation diligently to ensure whether foam treatment is the right choice for you.
