A comprehensive curriculum covering everything nurse practitioners need to safely and effectively perform sclerotherapy treatments.
Master the venous system of the lower extremities including superficial veins, deep veins, perforator veins, and reticular veins. Understand venous insufficiency, valve dysfunction, and the pathophysiology of spider veins and varicose veins.
Learn precise injection protocols for telangiectasias (spider veins), reticular veins, and small varicose veins. Practice proper needle angles, injection volumes, and compression techniques for optimal results.
Compare sclerosing agents including sodium tetradecyl sulfate (Sotradecol), polidocanol (Asclera), and hypertonic saline. Understand concentrations, dilutions, and foam sclerotherapy.
Develop consultation skills, identify contraindications, assess venous insufficiency, and create personalized treatment plans for each patient.
Recognize and manage adverse events including hyperpigmentation, matting, DVT, skin necrosis, and allergic reactions. Learn prevention strategies and treatment protocols.
Set up vendor accounts, pricing strategies, and marketing tactics to attract patients seeking vein treatment services.
Understanding your capabilities and practice authority as an NP performing sclerotherapy treatments.
As a nurse practitioner, you have advanced practice authority that allows you to perform procedures like sclerotherapy. In full practice authority states (currently 27 states plus DC), you can practice independently without physician oversight. In reduced or restricted practice states, you'll need a collaborative agreement or physician supervision. Your NP education and clinical training provide an excellent foundation for performing safe, effective vein treatments.
Add a high-demand, cash-pay service to your practice. Sclerotherapy treatments generate excellent revenue with minimal overhead.
In full practice authority states, NPs can own and operate their own aesthetic clinics, independently performing sclerotherapy and other procedures.
Sclerotherapy skills make you more valuable to aesthetic practices and open doors to higher-paying positions in medical spas and vein clinics.
In states requiring physician collaboration, many NPs establish collaborative agreements with physicians who provide oversight while allowing the NP to perform day-to-day patient care and procedures. This arrangement can work well in multi-provider aesthetic practices or through telemedicine collaborations.
Receive your AAOPM Certificate of Completion with 8.0 CME credits. This certification demonstrates your competency in sclerotherapy procedures and satisfies requirements for malpractice insurance and practice credentialing.
