Sclerotherapy in Beverly Hills

How Sclerotherapy Works

A sclerosing solution is injected directly into the target vein through a very fine needle. It irritates the vein lining, causing the walls to swell, stick together and seal shut. The collapsed vein becomes scar tissue and is gradually absorbed by your body, while blood reroutes through healthier veins nearby.

It has been used for decades and remains the standard treatment for spider veins on the legs — generally more effective there than laser, which tends to work better on facial vessels.

What it treats

• Spider veins (telangiectasias) — fine red, blue or purple lines, often in a web pattern
• Reticular veins — slightly larger blue-green veins beneath the surface
• Small varicose veins — though larger ones need different treatment

What it does not treat

Large, bulging varicose veins usually indicate underlying venous insufficiency — valves in the deeper veins failing, allowing blood to pool. Treating surface veins without addressing that means they recur. If your examination suggests underlying insufficiency, the appropriate step is a vascular assessment with ultrasound, and we will tell you that rather than treat the surface.

Symptoms suggesting more than a cosmetic issue include aching or heaviness in the legs, swelling around the ankles, skin discolouration near the ankle, and cramping at night. Those warrant proper vascular evaluation.

Why Patients Choose Modern Aesthetica

Dr. Moghadam injects — personally

Filler is not a commodity procedure. Where product sits relative to bone, muscle, and vasculature decides whether a result looks refreshed or overdone. At Modern Aesthetica the founder and medical director, Dr. Daniel Moghadam, performs the injections himself rather than delegating to a technician.

Facial assessment before product selection

We do not begin with a product. We begin with what is actually happening in your face — where volume has gone, how your skin behaves when it moves, how light falls across your cheekbones. The right filler follows from that. Sometimes the answer is a different treatment entirely, and we will say so.

Conservative dosing, reviewed

We would rather place less and refine at your follow-up than overfill. Hyaluronic acid fillers can be dissolved if needed, but a face that has been overcorrected takes real time to recover its proportions.

Transparent pricing

Fillers are priced per syringe. You will know how many syringes are planned and what the total is before anything is injected. Current offers are on our promotions page.
