Smooth, clear legs and ankles are possible again with advanced vein treatments by Dr. Solomon
Whether you’re dealing with branching spider veins or deeper varicose veins, sclerotherapy offers an effective, minimally invasive solution to restore your skin’s natural appearance while supporting better vascular health. Dr. Solomon provides personalized sclerotherapy treatments in Beverly Hills to help patients look and feel their best. Combining a keen eye for cosmetic detail with medical expertise, he is committed to delivering results that not only improve aesthetics but also enhance leg comfort and function.
Sclerotherapy is a time-tested medical procedure designed to treat unsightly or uncomfortable veins. During the treatment, a sclerosing agent is injected directly into the targeted veins. This solution irritates the lining of the blood vessel, causing it to seal shut. Over time, the treated vein fades from view and is reabsorbed by the body.

These symptoms usually subside within a few days to weeks. Rare complications such as allergic reactions or superficial blood clots are uncommon when treatment is performed by a skilled specialist.
While some patients see noticeable results after just one treatment, multiple sessions may be required depending on the size and number of veins involved. Most individuals benefit from 2–3 sessions, spaced about four to six weeks apart.
Dr. Solomon will tailor your treatment plan based on:
While some vein conditions are unavoidable due to genetics or hormonal changes, there are steps you can take to reduce your risk:
