I have a lot of redness and small veins on my nose. Is sclerotherapy the best option?

While sclerotherapy may work well for small veins, a new device called VeinWave may be a better choice. VeinWave uses a tiny needle tip to deliver heat to the vein and works very well for many small facial veins with much less pain and discoloration than sclerotherapy. Another option is IPL (Intense Pulsed Light) which can be painful, more expensive and takes several treatments but is able to treat other skin changes as well as the veins.
