I went in on 3/31 for Asclera injections on my right leg for very small spider veins. Four days later & the veins are still there & now I have red puncture marks.. It looks like the veins might be fading a little, but they havent disappeared like you see on tv, that's for sure... How long does it usually take? I'm wondering if the girl even got it right?

Thank you for your question.
We routinely use both Asclera and STS in treatment of spider and varicose veins. If a severe allergic reaction is reported to one, we do not use the other. While I prefer Asclera over STS (for less pigmentation changes), I would not recommend...
Asclera once opened should be used then. The doctor must break the little glass vial to get the Asclera out and should use all of it the same day. Hope that helps. Good luck!
Prices can vary from office to office so it is recommend to find a facility in your area that offers this service and doing a consultation to make sure this is the right treatment for you and at that time they will give you a quote on prices and how many vials you will need. I hope this helps..
