Charting Your Course to Vascular Wellness: A Comprehensive Guide to Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy

Enhancing Vein Health with Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy

In the battle against visible surface varicose veins and their concealed counterparts, the power of ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy takes center stage. This advanced procedure seamlessly marries precision administration with ultrasound visualization, offering a safe and effective solution for a range of vein conditions. In this article, we embark on a deep dive into the world of ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy, shedding light on the role of polidocanol (marketed as Asclera®), treatment frequency, and what you can expect during your treatment sessions.

Revealing the Wonders of Ultrasound-Guided Foam Sclerotherapy: A Cutting-Edge Resolution

Ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy harnesses the synergy of technology and medical expertise to target varicose veins that may not be readily apparent to the naked eye. The foam medication, skillfully guided by ultrasound, is precisely directed toward varicose veins, even those hidden beneath the surface. This technique is not limited to superficial veins but is adept at navigating complex venous pathways with twists and turns.

Polidocanol (Asclera®): The Preferred Sclerosant

Among the plethora of sclerosant medications, polidocanol, known by the brand name Asclera®, shines as the preferred choice. Its patient-friendly attributes and minimal risk of side effects make it a prime contender for vein treatment. As a detergent-type medication, polidocanol gently disrupts the inner lining of veins, effectively halting blood flow, ultimately leading to complete vein closure. Approved by the FDA for varicose vein treatment since 2010, polidocanol boasts a substantial track record of success in Europe spanning decades. Its transformation into foam for treating larger veins, though an off-label application, has proven remarkably effective and well-tolerated by patients. Rest assured, our seasoned experts at La Jolla Vein Care bring extensive experience to the realm of foam sclerotherapy, ensuring your vein health receives adept and capable care.

Treatment Frequency: A Personalized Approach

The number and frequency of treatment sessions are as unique as your anatomy and individual vein response to treatment. On average, substantial improvement, approximately 80%, can be achieved with 2 to 5 treatment sessions. For some larger or more recalcitrant veins, two or more sessions may be required to achieve a complete response.

Your Treatment Days: An Expertly Guided Sojourn to Vein Wellness

Preparing for your ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy treatment day is a streamlined process:

Consent and Attire: You’ll complete a consent form and change into the provided shorts to ensure your comfort.

Skin Preparation: Your skin will be meticulously cleansed with alcohol, and ultrasound will be utilized to pinpoint the veins requiring treatment.

Injection Process: The foam medication will be gently injected into your veins using a fine needle, under the watchful guidance of ultrasound.

Recovery Period: Post-treatment, you’ll elevate your legs using a comfortable wedge pillow for approximately 15 minutes.

Compression Stockings and Walking: After treatment, compression stockings will be thoughtfully applied, and you’ll engage in a 30-minute walk before departing. It’s common to experience some achiness and tenderness following treatment.

Ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy ushers in a new era of enhanced vein health, offering precision and efficacy. At La Jolla Vein & Vascular, our dedicated medical team is unwavering in their commitment to delivering personalized care throughout your vein health journey. By embracing cutting-edge techniques such as ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy, you embark on a path to healthier, pain-free legs and an elevated sense of well-being.

Chemical Ablation: Varithena

2023-05-24T17:13:43-07:00

Varithena (polidocanol injectable foam)

is a prescription medication used to treat the great saphenous vein system (GSV) and associated varicose veins of the GSV system. Varithena improves the symptoms of superficial venous incompetence and the appearance of visible varicosities. It is a non-thermal, non-tumescent, nearly painless method of vein treatment.

WHAT IS VARITHENA?

Varithena

Foam Sclerotherapy

Varithena is a “microfoam” formulation of polidocanol (sclerosing agent) and CO2.

The result is a microfoam that has an appearance and consistency similar to white, foamy shave cream.

Ultrasound guidance is used to inject Varithena® microfoam into the vein. The microfoam fills the lumen for circumferential

contact where it’s designed to displace blood and destroy the endothelial lining efficiently.

Varithena® may be recommended based on your vein location, size, anatomy and vein tortuosity.

Varithena® is:

  • Effective to treat veins of different sizes above and below the knee
  • Requires no incisions, sedation or general anesthesia
  • Does not require a wire to be inserted along the length of your vein
  • Does not use heat, eliminating the risk of thermal injury

How many treatments will I need?

The number and frequency of treatments depends on a patient’s anatomy, how quickly the veins respond, and the patient’s treatment goals.  There is a limit on the amount of medication we can give you each day to avoid causing side effects.  Some larger or resistant veins may require two treatments to respond completely but most veins respond to Varithena® after one treatment.

WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT ON THE DAY OF TREATMENT?

You will sign your consent form then change into shorts provided by the office.  We will clean your skin with alcohol, then use ultrasound to localize the veins.  The foam medication will then be injected into your veins with a fine needle.  The foam fills and treats the desired section of the vein.  The diseased vein collapses and the foam is deactivated.  Your legs will be elevated on a comfortable wedge pillow for approximately 15 minutes. After your treatment, we will help you into your compression stockings, then you will walk for 30 minutes prior to getting in your car.

Patient Transformation: Spider Veins

2023-05-24T15:02:20-07:00

Spider Vein Treatment

What are spider veins?

Spider veins are the fine, thread-like reddish veins at the surface of the skin which can eventually lead into spider vein treatment. These veins are not healthy. Veins are often considered a cosmetic issue, but they can be associated with underlying feeder veins, not visible to the naked eye.  Feeder veins are the ‘blue veins’ also known as ‘reticular veins,’ that give rise to spider veins. Spider veins may also be a sign of underlying venous insufficiency. For example, spider veins located in the inner ankles and inner thighs can indicate an underlying problem with the saphenous vein. As a result, an ultrasound examination may be recommended to identify and effectively treat the underlying source of these veins.

What are the symptoms?

Vein conditions affect people differently. For some, these veins can be a painless cosmetic concern, and for others they may cause symptoms. The most common symptoms of spider veins are burning, throbbing, and localized pain. They can also feel hot and itchy and bleed.

What causes them?

Spider veins in the legs are caused by the same condition that causes varicose veins. Leaky vein valves allow blood to pool within the veins causing them to stretch and become enlarged. These veins on other areas of the body, such as the face, and chest can be caused by sun damage, hormone changes or liver disease. Hormones, such as with pregnancy, birth control or hormone replacement therapy can weaken the vein wall.

How is venous reflux disease treated?

2023-05-25T16:20:56-07:00

Venous reflux disease is also known as venous stasis, venous insufficiency or venous incompetence. Venous reflux disease refers to ‘leaky valves’ in the veins of the legs. Reflux may occur in the deep and/or superficial leg veins. The deep veins are those within the muscle; they bring at least 80-90% of the blood from the legs back to the heart. The superficial veins are outside of the muscle and under the skin.

The main superficial veins are the Great Saphenous Vein that courses up the middle of the thigh and calf and the small saphenous vein, which courses up the back of the calf. Normally, there are one-way valves within the leg veins, which help blood flow in one direction: toward the heart. This means blood is traveling against gravity.

The calf muscle also helps move blood toward the heart. When vein valves are leaky, blood flows backward (reflux) towards the feet. Blood pools in the lower legs, causing bulging veins at the surface. Symptoms include leg heaviness, leg fatigue, leg pain, ankle swelling, phlebitis (inflamed and painful veins) , restless legs at night, and night cramps.

Venous reflux disease is progressive and worsens over time. Skin changes may also develop, including darkening of the skin around the ankles. The darkening of the skin is sometimes referred to as venous stasis skin changes. The skin can become dry and itchy (venous eczema). Eventually, the skin can break down causing a wound, called a venous leg ulcer.

Step 1: The Underlying Problem

The first step is to treat the underlying problem, the venous reflux. The specific pattern of venous reflux was detected by ultrasound. Venous reflux usually starts in the saphenous veins. The saphenous veins are most effectively treated with vein ablation procedures. This involves placing a small catheter within the vein and using heat or a solution to produce injury and eventual closure of the vein. The most commonly used treatments for the saphenous veins are radiofrequency ablation (RFA), laser ablation, mechanico-chemical ablation (MOCA or Clarivein), and in some cases Varithena Foam. The treatment Step recommendation is customized, based on where reflux is present and other clinical factors.

Step 2: Varicose Veins

After the underlying saphenous vein reflux is corrected, the bulging veins (varicose veins) can be treated by injecting a foamed medication that will cause them to scar and eventually dissolve (foam sclerotherapy), or to remove them using tiny incisions. The most common method is foam sclerotherapy. This is also known as ultrasound-guided foam sclerotherapy (UGFS).

Step 3: Spider Veins

Spider vein treatment is always considered a cosmetic procedure. If improved cosmesis is a goal of treatment, make sure to discuss this with your doctor and plan on having cosmetic treatment as the last step. Spider vein treatment is accomplished by sclerotherapy, which is an injection of a liquid medication into the spider veins. Ask your provider for an estimate about how many treatment sessions/ vials are necessary to get the results you want.

Do you have non healing ulcers or wounds?

2023-02-15T20:25:40-08:00

We might all be familiar with ulcers in a general manner, but certain types of ulcers behave quite differently due to various contributing factors. These are non healing ulcers or non healing wounds, and if not treated with care and in good time, such wounds can pose a serious risk to the patient’s health. Severe cases may lead to amputation of the affected limbs or loss of life in the most extreme circumstances. The nonhealing ulcers cases we treat here at La Jolla Vein & Vascular fall under peripheral arterial disease (PAD) and a subcategory of arterial disease.

Non-healing wounds or ulcers do not follow the usual healing process and are referred to as chronic wounds should they persist beyond 3 weeks. Such wounds can be a heavy burden to live with for anyone. Still, the board-certified vascular surgeons and specialists at La Jolla Vein & Vascular are dedicated to administering effective treatment and management solutions to all patients so they may resume a healthy, productive, and pain-free life.

Causes of Non-Healing Wounds

The underlying factors contributing to the risk of developing a non-healing ulcer or wound are widely varied. What they have in common is their ability to interfere with the way the body normally functions with regard to wounds.

Symptoms of Non-Healing Ulcers

You shouldn’t allow a wound to fester for weeks on end before seeking professional assistance, especially if you fall under one or more of the risk categories we’ve outlined above. The following are some warning signs to look out for:

  • Darkening or bluish discoloration around the wound edges
  • Significant pain around the wound that persists without improvement or progressively grows worse
  • Foul odor or smell emanating from the wound
  • Swelling and redness emanating from the wound and spreading to surrounding skin and tissue
  • Continuous leaking, draining, or weeping from the wound.

Notice that these symptoms are mostly indicative of infection. This is a good measure as it often indicates a failure of the body’s natural mechanisms to deal with the wound through its normal processes. The rapid and timely intervention will be called for to forestall further tissue damage and complications.

Venous reflux disease 101

2023-02-15T19:01:31-08:00

In addition to your physical exam findings and medical history, an ultrasound examination is an important tool in the assessment of venous disease. Not all venous disease is visible to the naked eye, and it usually arises from veins that are beneath the surface of the skin, only visible by ultrasound technology.

The ultrasound allows us to see if the valves are leaky; it can detect the direction of blood flow and also detects blockages in the veins, for example from blood clots or scars within the veins from previous clots.  The ultrasound will determine exactly which veins are ‘bad’ or incompetent.  Reflux may be detected in the deep veins (within the muscle), the great and small saphenous veins, and/or branches of the saphenous veins.  This will help determine the treatment plan.

Below are some photographs from our ultrasound exams. Take a peak for an inside look on what to expect during your ultrasound appointment.
