Q & A

Asclera® is a highly effective and safe sclerosing agent that is administered through a specialized injection process. The mechanism of action for Asclera® involves the deliberate injury of the endothelium, which is the cellular lining inside blood vessels. This induces the adhesion of blood platelets and cellular debris, which in turn leads to the formation of a blood clot that ultimately replaces the clotted vein with new tissue. Asclera® has been demonstrated to produce significant improvements in treating vascular conditions, providing patients with the effective and reliable treatment they require to overcome their medical concerns. Through its unique mechanism of action, Asclera® is able to yield superior results, thereby benefiting medical professionals and patients alike.
A typical session to address spider or reticular vein concerns usually takes around 15 to 45 minutes and may require one to three injections. Several treatment sessions may be necessary with a gap of one to two weeks between each session for optimal results.

After receiving treatment, your healthcare provider may direct you to wear compression stockings for a period of time to aid in the healing process and reduce discomfort and swelling. These stockings are designed to apply pressure to your lower legs, thus aiding in blood flow regulation. It is imperative to follow the provider’s instructions and wear the stockings for the recommended duration and time of day. Proper usage of compression stockings is crucial for reducing the risk of deep vein thrombosis.
