Tips for patients
If you have received a letter from UnitedHealthcare (UHC) stating that any of the providers listed below are out-of-network, please be informed that refers to their former practice. The following physicians and APC remain in-network at ARC, and you may continue seeing them without any changes to your coverage:
Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive vein treatment performed to eliminate spider or varicose veins. During the procedure, a sclerosing solution is injected into the problem veins. This solution causes an irritation to the inner lining of the vein, ultimately causing it to collapse. Over time, the treated vein fades away.
If you're pregnant or have a history of blood clots in the treatment area, sclerotherapy is not recommended.
The number of treatments required depends on the severity of your spider or varicose veins. Most patients require multiple treatments for optimal results.
There is minimal downtime associated with sclerotherapy injections. You can usually resume normal activities immediately after the treatment.
You may start to notice a difference from sclerotherapy injections within a few weeks, and the full effects are often visible within several months.
You may experience mild swelling, bruising, or itching at the injection sites. These side effects are typically temporary.
We advise you to wear compression garments following your sclerotherapy procedure. This is to help reduce swelling, speed up the healing process and improve your results.
Other than spider veins in the legs, sclerotherapy injections can be used to eliminate those in the hand, arms, chest, feet, and ankles.
