Sclerotherapy is widely used to treat varicose veins. It involves injecting a chemical solution directly into the affected vessel. This medication causes the vein to scar and redirects blood through healthier routes. The patient lies on their back during the procedure while our provider injects the sclerosing agent into the abnormal veins using a very small needle. The number of treatments needed varies, depending on the extent of the problem. Over the next few weeks, the veins collapse and are reabsorbed by the body, fading from view as the blood flow is redirected to healthier veins.
Sclerotherapy is performed as an outpatient procedure, and no anesthesia is required. After treatment, patients may be advised to wear compression stockings for a short period. In many cases, sclerotherapy can significantly improve the appearance of varicose veins without surgical procedures.
Surface laser therapy is a non-invasive spider vein treatment. Our provider directs a laser at the skin’s surface over the enlarged, twisted vein. The device delivers gentle bursts of light energy, generating heat in that area. It makes the vein walls contract and improves blood flow.
Over a series of treatments, surface laser therapy can reduce skin discoloration and other symptoms caused by spider veins. Unlike other procedures, it does not require incisions or anesthesia. Surface laser therapy provides an alternative way to address the affected veins without surgery. Patients may experience mild redness or swelling after treatment, which usually resolves quickly.
This minimally invasive technique is performed in our office under local anesthesia in about 30-60 minutes. The technology allows for precise targeting of the abnormal veins, leading to excellent cosmetic results with less bruising compared to traditional stripping surgery. Most patients return to normal activity with minimal downtime of 1-2 days. Laser procedures can significantly decrease pain, swelling, heaviness, and cramping in the affected legs.
The cost of varicose veins treatment in Miami varies from $300 to $5,000. The price depends on the vascular surgeons’ credentials, the extent of the disease, and the types of procedures. Less invasive operations, such as sclerotherapy and surface laser therapy, tend to be on the lower end of the cost spectrum, while more complex surgical procedures are typically more expensive. The cost also rises if multiple areas require treatment.The exact price for varicose vein procedures can only be determined after a thorough consultation with our provider. Each patient’s needs are unique, so an expert evaluation is necessary to decide on the best course of treatment.
