Say goodbye to spider veins with confidence.
Visible veins on your legs or face can affect your comfort and self-esteem, especially when they become more prominent with age, genetics, or lifestyle factors. At Elegance Aesthetics in Towson, we offer Asclera Spider Vein Treatment as a minimally invasive, non-surgical way to reduce their appearance and restore a smoother, clearer look to your skin.
This gentle injectable treatment targets spider veins directly, causing them to close and fade from view over time. Whether you’re looking to treat small clusters or want to improve larger visible areas, our experienced team in Towson will tailor your care to your goals.
Understanding What Spider Veins Are
Spider veins are tiny blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin, often taking on a red, blue, or purple hue. They are most commonly seen on the legs, cheeks, or around the nose, and they often resemble small tree branches or webs.
These veins are typically not a health concern, but they can cause some discomfort, such as itching or aching after standing for long periods. More often, however, they are treated for cosmetic reasons. Spider veins can be influenced by:
– Family history of vein issues
– Hormonal fluctuations
– Extended standing or sitting
– Pregnancy or birth control
– Pressure from weight gain
– Skin changes due to age
Once present, spider veins will not disappear on their own, but they can be treated effectively with Asclera.
Comparing Spider Veins and Larger Varicose Veins
Spider veins and varicose veins may look similar, but they behave differently. Spider veins are small, surface-level veins that do not bulge or twist. Varicose veins are larger, deeper veins that are more likely to protrude, cause heaviness, or lead to discomfort.
Asclera Spider Vein Treatment is best suited for treating small veins, including reticular veins, which are slightly deeper than spider veins but not as large or raised as varicose veins. If you’re unsure which type of vein you’re seeing, our consultation will help identify the right treatment for you.
How Asclera Treatment at Elegance Aesthetics Helps Fade Unwanted Veins
Asclera is a prescription solution used during sclerotherapy, a method that involves injecting medication directly into visible veins. The solution irritates the lining of the treated vein, causing it to seal closed. Once the vein is closed, your body naturally reroutes blood through healthier nearby vessels.
Over time, the sealed vein fades from view as it is reabsorbed by the body. No incisions or anesthesia are needed, and most people return to their daily activities shortly after treatment.
Concerns That Asclera Spider Vein Treatment Can Address
Asclera is designed to treat a variety of minor vein concerns, including:
– Thin, red, or purple spider veins on the legs, face, or ankles
– Reticular veins, which are slightly deeper but still visible
– Discoloration or marks left by small broken blood vessels
– Cosmetic clusters that do not respond to creams or surface treatments
While not a solution for advanced vein disease, Asclera is highly effective for clients looking to improve the cosmetic appearance of small, unwanted veins.
Are You a Candidate for Asclera in Towson?
If spider veins are making you feel self-conscious, Asclera may be the right solution. You may be a good candidate if you:
- Are bothered by visible veins but do not have major underlying vein disease
- Are in generally good health and not taking blood-thinning medications
- Are not currently pregnant or breastfeeding
- Do not have a personal history of blood clots
- Prefer a non-surgical option with minimal recovery
Our team in Towson will review your health history and skin condition during your consultation to ensure this treatment is the safest and most effective approach.
Preparing for Your Consultation at Elegance Aesthetics in Towson
Private Consultation
All treatments begin with a private consultation with one of our experienced providers. During this appointment, we will review your vein concerns, evaluate your skin and circulation, and confirm your eligibility for treatment.
We’ll also provide clear guidelines for what to avoid before your appointment, including certain medications or supplements. Our goal is to help you feel fully informed and confident in your treatment plan.
What Your Asclera Appointment Will Look Like
Cleansing the Area
On the day of your treatment, we’ll begin by gently cleansing the treatment area. Your provider may mark the veins to be treated, especially if you have several clusters or widespread coverage.
Precise Injections
Next, Asclera is injected into the veins using a very fine needle. Most clients describe the feeling as a light pinch or quick sting, and the procedure is well tolerated without anesthesia.
Supportive Aftercare
We may apply a soft compression wrap or bandage to help the treated area recover. The entire session usually takes about 30 to 45 minutes, depending on how many veins are being addressed.
After a brief observation period, you’ll be able to return to most of your regular activities.
Aftercare Advice Following Your Treatment
To ensure smooth healing and long-lasting results, we’ll provide you with aftercare instructions tailored to your skin and treatment area. These often include:
- Wearing compression stockings or wraps for several days
- Avoiding hot tubs, long hot showers, or sauna use
- Keeping the treated area clean and dry
- Avoiding direct sunlight or tanning
- Walking gently each day to encourage circulation
- Skipping strenuous workouts for at least 48 hours
Mild redness, bruising, or itching is common and should resolve in a few days. If you experience anything unexpected, our team is here to support you.
How Many Asclera Treatments Will I Need?
Most clients require more than one session to achieve their ideal results. Typically, two to four treatments spaced a few weeks apart will help fade the majority of visible spider veins.
Your provider will evaluate your progress after each session and may adjust the plan based on how your skin is responding. Once a vein has faded, it will not return, but new veins may form over time due to genetics or lifestyle.
Maintenance treatments once or twice a year can help you maintain your results.

Asclera FAQs
Are there any side effects to Asclera?
Common side effects include mild swelling, redness, bruising, or tenderness at the injection site. These usually resolve within a few days. Rarely allergic reactions or skin discoloration may occur, and your provider will review any potential risks with you beforehand.
Is Asclera treatment safe for all skin types?
Yes, Asclera is safe for a wide range of skin types and tones. Your provider will assess your medical history and any existing conditions to ensure this treatment is appropriate for you. As with any injectable procedure, it’s important to work with a qualified practitioner.
Can I get Asclera if I’ve had vein treatments in the past?
Yes, many clients who have had previous sclerotherapy or laser vein treatments can still benefit from Asclera. It can even be used as a follow-up treatment to target veins that didn’t fully resolve. Your provider will assess your vein history to create a safe and effective plan.
What should I avoid before my appointment?
Avoid using any blood-thinning medications or supplements (like aspirin or fish oil) for a few days prior to treatment unless otherwise directed by your doctor. You should also avoid alcohol and stay well hydrated. Your provider will give you complete pre-treatment instructions during your consultation.
Can I wear makeup or skincare products after facial vein treatment?
If Asclera is used on facial veins, we recommend avoiding makeup or active skincare products for at least 24 to 48 hours. This allows the skin to heal properly and reduces the risk of irritation. Use only gentle, fragrance-free products during recovery.
Will I need to rest after the treatment?
You won’t need bed rest, but we advise avoiding intense exercise, saunas, or hot tubs for at least 48 hours. Light walking is encouraged to support blood flow and healing. Follow all aftercare guidance to get the best results from your treatment.
How soon can I fly or travel after Asclera?
It’s usually safe to travel after your treatment, but long flights or sitting for extended periods may increase pressure in your legs. If you’re planning to travel soon after your session, let your provider know. Wearing compression stockings during flights may be recommended.
Can men get Asclera for spider veins?
Absolutely. Asclera is effective for both men and women with visible spider veins. We treat clients of all genders who want to improve the look of their skin and feel more confident in shorts, swimwear, or professional settings.
Is Asclera only for cosmetic purposes?
Asclera is primarily used to improve the cosmetic appearance of spider and reticular veins. However, for some clients, it can also relieve minor symptoms like aching or swelling in the affected veins. Your provider will determine if the treatment has both aesthetic and symptom-relief benefits for you.
What happens if new spider veins appear in the future?
It’s common for new veins to form over time due to aging, hormones, or lifestyle factors. If they do, follow-up treatments can be scheduled as needed to maintain your results. Preventive care like staying active and wearing support stockings may help reduce future development.
