Sclerotherapy for Denville, NJ
A series of tiny injections that collapse spider veins and small varicose veins so the body absorbs them. The standard treatment, and still the best one for surface veins.

What sclerotherapy actually involves
This page covers coming to us from Denville. The procedure itself — what is done, what it feels like, the recovery, what insurance does and does not cover — is set out in full on the main page.
Coming from Denville
The practice is at 624 Main Rd, Suite 2B, Towaco, NJ 07082, off Main Road in Towaco, with parking on site. Denville sits in Morris County, among the towns this practice serves most.
Sclerotherapy is done in the office rather than a hospital — no general anaesthetic and no overnight stay. You drive yourself in and, for most of our procedures, drive yourself home.
Before anything is scheduled
A consultation and, for vein treatment, a duplex ultrasound map of the leg. Nothing is booked before we know what is actually causing the problem — and that scan is also what most insurers require before they will approve treatment.
Sclerotherapy for spider veins alone is usually considered cosmetic and not covered. Where an ultrasound shows underlying venous reflux, treatment of that vein is a separate medical question and is often covered. We check your benefits and tell you which applies to you before you commit to anything.
What it treats
Conditions this is used for
Spider Veins
Fine red, blue or purple lines just under the skin, most often on the thighs, calves and ankles. Usually treated with sclerotherapy in short sessions.
Varicose Veins
Rope-like veins that bulge above the skin and make legs ache, throb and feel heavy by the end of the day. Usually a valve problem, and usually treatable in the office.

Book from Denville
A consultation is a conversation and an examination, not a sales appointment. Dr. D’Alessio will tell you what she thinks is causing it, what can be done about it, and — when that is the honest answer — that you do not need a procedure.
