Spider Vein Therapy Guideline

Preparing For Your Procedure.
You know the issue… surface splotching with unsightly blue, purple and red veins… somewhat circular patterns with branching patterns running along your thighs, calves or ankles or even your face. Prior to the procedure, you’re advised to avoid any surface skin ointments such as creams, moisturizers, sun blocks and so on. Once you’ve arrived at the out patient facility, your legs will be antiseptically cleansed and further examined in order to ensure that you have no skin health irregularities or infections. Naturally, if your overall health is not good… if you have AIDS…or other serious medical conditions.
• Technical Aspects Of Your Procedure. To ensure patient safety and prior to beginning your spider vein therapy, your doctor might elect to perform ultrasound exam of your legs, looking for deeper vein irregularities which can show up via ultrasound scanning. Now you’re ready. Your health professional makes you comfortable, and then begins your spider vein therapy by injecting a tiny needle… extremely fine like needles used in acupuncture… filled with the sclerosing solution. You’ll hardly feel anything. Injections are made approximately every inch, with an upper limit of around 35 to 45 injections in any one session.
• ‘Downside’ Health Risks. Face it. Spider vein therapy is one of the most benign procedures you’ll undertake. However, any procedure carries some risks. While remote, spider vein therapy can result in bruising, sub-cutaneous bleeding, and the potential for infection. A small segment of the population may undergo spider vein therapy and turn out to be allergic to the sclerosing fluid injected. An equally small population might show skin pigmentation irregularities associated with spider vein therapy. In some instances, down-the-road emergence of fine blood vein matting can occur, requiring yet repeated spider vein therapy in order to correct the condition.
• Cosmetic Procedure: Elective Direct Costs. Unless some underlying health risk has been determined, your spider vein therapy will be considered elective, therefore may not qualify for inclusion in your health care plan benefits. So, you may be out-of-pocket the actual direct costs of the spider vein treatment.
