Ultrasound Guided Sclerofoam in Boca Raton, FL

New technology sometimes makes a good procedure even better. Ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy is an excellent example. By using an ultrasound machine to project an image of enlarged varicose veins onto a screen, a clinician can guide the needle to the exact location where an injection is needed. Then, specially developed foam can be inserted directly into the vein, causing it to contract and its walls to collapse. In a few weeks, the skin will look smoother, and the pain from the damaged veins will be gone.

Ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy is usually performed in the United States using a foam made from sodium tetradecyl sulfate, a sclerosant which has been approved by the FDA as safe and effective. When injected using the accuracy of ultrasound, this procedure can take care of varicose veins quickly and accurately. Ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy makes hospitalization unnecessary, and therefore, reduces the costs of treating varicose veins. Most sessions cost less than five hundred dollars, and sometimes one session is enough to complete the process.

If you are considering ultrasound guided foam sclerotherapy, a good place to start is by contacting a local provider. They will be happy to give you all of the details and talk you through the steps involved in scheduling a procedure.
