Eliminate the appearance of unwanted spider veins and achieve smoother, more even-toned skin with Asclera, a safe and effective treatment. At Glow Aesthetic Center in Westlake Village, we offer this advanced sclerotherapy solution to help you feel confident and comfortable in your skin.
Spider veins are small, web-like veins that appear on the skin’s surface in red, blue, or purple clusters. These veins commonly develop due to genetics, hormonal changes, prolonged standing, or the natural aging process. Asclera is a targeted sclerotherapy treatment that helps diminish these veins safely and efficiently.
At Glow Aesthetic Center in Westlake Village, Asclera is a trusted option for individuals seeking a minimally invasive approach to vein removal and skin enhancement.
Asclera is a prescription medication used in sclerotherapy, a minimally invasive treatment designed to eliminate unwanted spider veins and small varicose veins. This FDA-approved solution is injected directly into the affected veins, causing irritation to the vein lining, which leads to its closure. Once the vein is sealed off, blood is naturally redirected to healthier veins, and the treated vein is gradually absorbed by the body. Over time, this process improves circulation and restores a smoother, more even skin appearance. Asclera is a safe and effective option for those seeking a non-surgical solution for vein concerns.
Asclera utilizes a sclerosing agent called polidocanol to target and treat unwanted veins. The procedure includes:
Injection: A fine needle delivers the Asclera solution directly into the spider or small varicose vein.
Vein Closure: The solution irritates the vein’s walls, causing them to collapse and close.
Absorption: The treated vein is gradually reabsorbed by the body, eliminating its visible appearance.
Depending on the number and size of the veins, multiple sessions may be needed for the best results.
Asclera is primarily used for treating unwanted veins on the legs, though it can also address spider veins in other areas of the body. Commonly treated areas include:
Asclera effectively diminishes spider veins and small varicose veins on the thighs, calves, and ankles, improving overall leg aesthetics.
While less common, some facial spider veins may be treated with Asclera for a clearer complexion.
For individuals concerned about visible veins on their hands, Asclera can provide a smoother, more youthful appearance.
Asclera offers numerous advantages for those seeking to reduce the appearance of spider veins and small varicose veins:
Quick Treatment: A quick, in-office procedure requiring no surgery or anesthesia.
Noticeable Skin Improvement: Reduces the visibility of spider veins, leaving the skin smoother and more even-toned.
Little to No Downtime: Most patients resume normal activities immediately after treatment.
Safe and FDA-Approved: Clinically tested and proven for its safety and effectiveness.
Enhanced Confidence: A vein-free appearance helps improve self-esteem and comfort in wearing shorts, skirts, or swimwear.
Asclera is an excellent option for individuals looking to remove spider veins without undergoing invasive treatments. You may be a suitable candidate if:
Pregnant or breastfeeding women should refrain from undergoing sclerotherapy treatments, as should individuals with severe vein disease, active infections, or certain underlying health conditions.
At Glow Aesthetic Center, our experienced team will thoroughly assess your medical history, current health status, and vein concerns during your consultation to determine if Asclera is the safest and most effective option for you.
We prioritize your well-being and will provide personalized recommendations to help you achieve optimal results while ensuring your safety throughout the treatment process.
At Glow Aesthetic Center, we prioritize your comfort and results, ensuring each Asclera treatment is tailored to your specific needs.
Your treatment begins with a detailed consultation. Our experienced specialists will assess your veins, discuss your aesthetic concerns, and create a personalized treatment plan to achieve your desired results. The number of sessions needed will depend on the severity and location of your veins.
The procedure is performed in-office and takes approximately 15-30 minutes, depending on the number of veins being treated. A fine needle is used to inject the Asclera solution directly into the targeted veins. Most patients experience only mild discomfort, and no anesthesia is required.
Following your session, you may be advised to wear compression stockings to support healing and improve your results. Avoid heavy exercise, prolonged sitting, and direct sun exposure for 24-48 hours. Any mild redness or swelling typically resolves within a few days.
Visible improvements begin within a few weeks as the body absorbs the collapsed veins. Full results typically develop over several months, and multiple sessions may be needed for the best outcome.
At Glow Aesthetic Center in Westlake Village, we are dedicated to delivering high-quality care and outstanding results. Our skilled team uses advanced techniques to ensure safe, effective, and natural-looking outcomes with every Asclera treatment.

Asclera is primarily used for spider veins and small varicose veins on the legs, but in some cases, it may be used to treat facial veins. However, alternative treatments like laser therapy may be more suitable for delicate facial skin.
Asclera works by injecting a solution into the veins to cause them to collapse, while laser treatments use heat to seal veins shut. Both are effective, but sclerotherapy is often preferred for larger spider veins or small varicose veins.
While Asclera is primarily a cosmetic treatment, some patients report a reduction in discomfort associated with small varicose veins. If you experience pain or swelling from larger veins, additional treatment options may be recommended.
Many patients choose to undergo Asclera treatments in fall or winter, as compression stockings are easier to wear during cooler months. It also allows time for results to develop before summer.
Asclera is a minimally invasive procedure that requires little to no downtime. Most patients resume daily activities immediately but are advised to avoid strenuous exercise for 24-48 hours.
Before treatment, avoid shaving or applying lotion to the treated area. It’s also recommended to avoid blood-thinning medications or supplements like aspirin, which can increase bruising.
If you have a history of blood clots or vascular conditions, you should consult with your healthcare provider before receiving Asclera. Our practitioners will review your medical history to determine if it is a safe option for you.
Light walking is encouraged immediately after treatment to promote circulation, but high-impact activities such as running or weightlifting should be avoided for at least 48 hours.
It’s normal for treated veins to darken or appear more prominent before they begin to fade. This is part of the body’s natural healing process, and results typically improve over several weeks.
Yes, Asclera is safe and effective for all skin types and tones. However, individuals with a history of hyperpigmentation may need to take extra precautions, such as avoiding excessive sun exposure.
