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.

I have been going to Nuance Aesthetics for several years now, and I have been elated with the results of my treatments. I have had Botox, Dysport, lip filler, kybella, and Cool Sculpting at Nuance and I’ve been very impressed with the outcome every time. I also love the vibe of this place - very professional, but at the same time, so welcoming, friendly, and sincerely caring. That was not the experience I had at a different Medical Spa I went to in the past. These guys are great!

Response from the owner:Thank you for the recommendation! Nuance Aesthetics
Wendy S.
This is my all time favorite place for aesthetic improvement.
The atmosphere is friendly and intimate. People talk you through it the processes in detail. And they know exactly what you need and where, but they never pressure you or try to talk to you in to something. I never have bruises or problems after. They will check on you to make sure. I am 70 years old and they have a way of putting a little something here and there to really make me look a lot younger. Also, which I feel is more important, is that my skin is softer and even in tone, my forehead is smooth , and my look is more refined. Nuance Aesthetics is my favorite place. You can get an appointment rather quickly. Trust me , Wendy
Response from the owner:Thank you, Wendy, for your wonderful feedback! We are delighted to hear that you enjoy our services and feel rejuvenated after your visits. Our team at Nuance Aesthetics is dedicated to providing personalized treatments that enhance your natural beauty. We appreciate your trust in us and look forward to seeing you again soon for another exceptional experience. Your kind words mean a lot to us!
