Sclerotherapy in Hoboken, NJ

Dr. Zbigniew Moszczynski, a board-certified phlebologist and general surgeon, specializes in eliminating unsightly varicose veins. Those living in Hoboken, New Jersey, are urged to make an appointment at Vein and Skin Studio if they wish to remove their varicose veins quickly and painlessly through sclerotherapy.

What is Sclerotherapy?

Varicose veins are enlarged veins that appear to pop up beneath the skin. They are easy to see since they are bright red, purple, or blue. Luckily, they can be completely removed since your venous system can work properly without them. Sclerotherapy involves the injection of a chemical directly into the vein. This special solution seals varicose veins shut, and as a result, the vein closes and disappears completely overtime. In addition to delivering great cosmetic results, this treatment can relieve the pain associated with varicose veins in around 85 percent of cases.

Because sclerotherapy is an injection-based and minimally invasive procedure, Dr. Moszczynski can easily perform the procedure in-office, and each treatment only takes around a half hour to perform. Sclerotherapy injections are safe for patients. In fact, the majority of those who receive them report that they only feel very mild discomfort.

You will experience very little downtime after a sclerotherapy treatment. Good blood circulation speeds along recovery, so patients are encouraged to go about their daily routines as they normally would.

How Does Sclerotherapy Work?

The skin around the varicose vein or veins will be cleaned with an antiseptic solution, then Dr. Moszczynski will gently pull the skin taut and inject the solution along the length of the vein. Treatments involve as little as five injections to around 40 injections for larger varicose veins. After the injections are administered, Dr. Moszczynski will then cover the treatment area with compression tape to maintain pressure.
