Spider Vein Treatment and Direct Primary Care (DPC): Clear Skin, Personalized
Sclerotherapy can help if spider veins on your face or legs make you feel less sure of yourself. But you might not feel like you're really there while you're having this cosmetic procedure. Direct Primary Care (DPC) changes this journey by giving you personalized, open care that leaves your skin smooth and free of veins.
How to Get Rid of Spider Veins: Understanding Treatment
Sclerotherapy is a spider vein treatment that uses a solution, such as polidocanol, to get rid of unwanted veins. You will see results in a few weeks after 1 to 3 sessions.
Patients should know this important information:
- Uses: Treats spider veins and reticular veins on the legs or face.
- Safety: There is a small chance of allergic reactions (1–2%), and bruising is common.
- Costs: Regular clinics charge between 300 USD and 500 USD per session, but DPC cuts costs by 20% to 30%.
Risks of care that isn't coordinated:
- There wasn't enough treatment, so more sessions are needed.
- Not taking care of hyperpigmentation after the procedure well enough.
- Touch-ups that weren't planned put a strain on finances.
