I have large, ugly, prominent veins on the back of my hands. Would Sclerotherapy work to get ride of them. If "no", why not?
Answer: Sclero for hands veins The special solution that is used, sclerosing agent, dissolves veins from the inside and is proven to be very safe and effective. Another method for reducing hand veins, even large prominent ones, is laser therapy. These treatments may require multiple sessions, but they are ultimately very effective. The best hand vein reduction method to use is best decided through an in-person consultation with a skilled, board-certified dermatologist who can assess your condition and come up with a customized treatment plan that will address your concerns in the best manner. Thanks for your question!

Answer: Sclerotherapy Thank you for your question in regards to sclerotehrapy. Sclerotherapy can be performed on hand veins up to 3mm in size. Injectable fillers are also an option to help "plump" the areas around the vein to give the appearance of smoother hands. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps!

Answer: Sclerotherapy for hand veins Sclerotherapy is one of the best methods for reducing hand veins! The FDA-approved sclerosing solution, dissolves veins from the inside and is proven to be safe and effective. Veins will become hard at first and slowly dissolve over a few months. Some patients will also benefit from injection of FDA-approved Radiesse to fill the hands minimizing the appearance of both tendons and veins. Please consult with a board certified dermatologic surgeon wgo can best assess and treat your condition.

Answer: Hand Rejuvenation --Lasers, Belotero, Radiesse versus sclerotherapy For the hands, I recommend treatment with fillers and/or lasers, which can camouflage the veins. I don't recommend sclerotherapy for this much because people need these veins as they age.

Answer: Sclerotherapy for LARGE hand veins ? NO Large varicose veins on the hand are best treated with microphlebectomy. Sclerotherapy would make them shrink but would leave hard, ropy cords which are not acceptable for most patients. As well, they may leave hyperpigmentation along the injected veins. You need to use some adjunctive measures after sclerotherapy to reduce post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. it is those that don't follow such instructions immediately following sclerotherapy, starting on day1 (next day) that seem to get retained hyperpigmentation. I recommend 2 creams: Scleroquin plus and Sclerovase and also Scler-X supplement to reduce post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (see link below) as well as compression stockings for at least 2 weeks.
