A member of the American College of Cardiology and the American Heart Association American College of Physicians, Dr. Rajan Bhatt serves as the CEO of Spectrum Dermatology and Valley Surgery Center. Rajan Bhatt is dedicated to providing his patients with the highest level of skin care solutions possible and leading a team of dermatological professionals that employs sclerotherapy to treat cosmetic conditions such as spider veins.
As one of the leading skin cosmetic service providers in the Phoenix and Scottsdale areas, Spectrum Dermatology offers innovative treatment for all forms of dermatological esthetic concerns. One of the skin conditions that many people who have them are not satisfied with is spider veins. Spider veins are characterized by the appearance of painless purple or red minuscule weblike patterns on the skin. Spider veins are cosmetic issues rather than medical conditions, although varicose veins, a medically significant condition, also look like spider veins. Spider veins can appear anywhere in the body - including the back of the thighs, ankles, legs, and face, where they may present as a disfigurement. Spectrum Dermatology offers sclerotherapy, a minimally invasive treatment that eliminates spider veins. The procedure involves introducing a solution called sclerosant to the spider veins under the skin via injection. When a spider vein is exposed to a sclerosant, it hardens and becomes blocked out of the circulatory system, which means blood supposed to pass through the vein reroutes to surrounding healthy veins. The spider vein will gradually shrink and eventually disappear since it is cut off from the blood supply.
