Sclerotherapy in Bayonne, NJ
Individuals who live in Bayonne, NJ, can contact the Vein & Skin studio to schedule a sclerotherapy appointment. A board-certified general surgeon and phlebologist, Dr. Zbigniew Moszczynski eliminates varicose veins through sclerotherapy.
What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy effectively seals varicose veins through the use of an injectable solution. Enlarged veins that appear purple, red, or bright blue, varicose veins are usually visible on the legs and face. These varicose veins are safe to remove since they do not perform any important function in the venous system. The injections used during sclerotherapy not only work to improve the skin’s appearance, but they also treat the pain associated with varicose veins in 85 percent of cases.
Dr. Moszczynski can easily perform the injection-based procedure in his office. Sclerotherapy is safe and causes only a small amount of discomfort in most patients. Depending on the condition of your veins and your desired results, you may need two to six treatments. Each treatment takes Dr. Moszczynski less than half an hour to complete.
Recovery after your injections is minimal, requiring no downtime from your normal activities. Returning to your regular routine is encouraged, since healthy blood flow aids in the recovery process.
How Does Sclerotherapy Work?
After arriving, Dr. Moszczynski and his staff will use an antiseptic solution to thoroughly clean the skin at the procedure area. He then injects the solution into the varicose veins by stretching the skin taut. Depending on each patient’s individual case, he will use a varying number of injections every inch around the area, usually between 5 and 40 injections. Once all injections are completed, Dr. Moszczynski will apply compression tape over the entire area.
