Sclerotherapy

Sclerotherapy in Salt Lake City

Sclerotherapy is a minimally invasive medical procedure used to treat spider veins—those small, red, blue, or purple veins that appear just beneath the skin's surface, most commonly on the legs and face. The treatment involves the injection of a specialized solution, called a sclerosant, directly into the affected veins. This solution irritates the inner lining of the vein, causing it to collapse and stick together. Over time, the treated vein is reabsorbed by the body and fades from view.

Sclerotherapy Faqs

Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure used to treat spider veins and small varicose veins by injecting a solution into the affected veins, causing them to collapse and fade over time.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort—often described as a mild burning or stinging sensation at the injection site. The procedure does not require anesthesia.
The number of treatments varies. Some people see improvement after just one session, while others may require 2 to 4 sessions spaced a few weeks apart for optimal results.
Common side effects include temporary redness, bruising, or swelling at the injection sites. Rarely, patients may experience pigmentation changes or small skin ulcers.
There is little to no downtime. Most patients can resume normal activities immediately, although high-impact exercise and sun exposure should be avoided for a few days.
The injected solution (sclerosant) irritates the vein lining, causing it to seal shut. The vein eventually turns into scar tissue and is absorbed by the body, making it no longer visible.
A typical sclerotherapy session takes 15 to 30 minutes, depending on the number and size of veins being treated.
You may start seeing improvements within 3 to 6 weeks for smaller veins. Larger veins can take several months to fully fade.
Treated veins usually don’t return, but new spider veins can form over time. Maintenance treatments may be needed in the future.
Ideal candidates are healthy individuals who are not pregnant or breastfeeding and are concerned about cosmetic spider veins or small varicose veins. A consultation is necessary to determine suitability.

These ladies are amazing, and dr. Rudy is so sweet...I have had lip filler and lip flips done at other places that left me lumpy, bruised and boy was it painful. Gohar recently did a full syringe and I basically didn't feel it, lips are perfect. Katie is a amazing injector too, she has done excellent work freezing nostrils and fixing wrinkle lines.

I have been visiting Holly for the last 8 years and since then I have virtually aged backwards. She is not only an absolute expert with enhancing and preserving your appearance, she’s incredibly knowledgable about all things women’s health and hormones. There is NOTHING you can’t talk to this woman about! If I could stay and hang out with Holly all day, I would. Love, love , love her AND the service she provides. I almost don’t want to leave this review because once the masses discover her she’ll be too busy for me and I’m selfish. 😂🫣

Exceptional medical spa highly credible professionals with superior quality care and client service. Took my fiancé with me for his first time which he was highly anxious about for numerous reasons. Gohar was amazing. She soothed him, introducing him to Dr. Rudy, and walked him through all of the beginner basics, even got him laugh and relax re male stigma with a "bro-tox" joke. We both had a great experience with Gohar's expertise at facial Botox. I also tried botox in my armpit to fully eliminate sweating and the need for deodorant (I hate chemicals and laundry stains) and all I'll say is worth every penny! She hooked us up and worked some crazy magic / witchcraft. Highly satisfied and recommend. I essentially feel like I snacked on kids while they dream hahah. Jokes, but really. I left feeling the elixir of youth soaking into my face. Thanks Gohar! Well be back before our wedding in a few months!
