If you have ever felt uncomfortable and self-conscious because of spider veins and dilated capillaries on your legs, Dr. Elman’s clinic has a great solution for you: foam injections to make spider veins and capillaries disappear.
This treatment has been known around the world for many years and it is based on a designated chemical agent, injected directly into the small veins in the legs.
The chemical agent acts on the wall of the blood vessel and welds it shut, stopping the blood flow and making the vein disappear.
Please note, this treatment is not suitable for varicose veins or larger veins, which require a completely different approach. The number of required treatments is at least 5 sessions with one -month intervals.
Patients whose legs are covered with a large number of spider veins may require a larger number of treatments, at times more than 10 and even 20.
In addition, it is important to note that at times new spider veins and capillaries may pop up in places after the injection, it is a natural process. Therefore, as with various other treatments in the field of medical aesthetics, the results may vary from patient to patient.
Whom is this treatment suitable for? The foam injection to the blood vessels treatment covers the whole leg, from the feet to the crotch, and is suitable for men and women of 20 years old and over, not for children or adolescents.
