If sclerotherapy left my legs with spider veins, is laser treatments the way to go, and how much does that cost?

Asked By:yimmj89 in Cuyahoga Falls, OH

I recently had vein removal and sclerotherapy on my legs for varicose veins and I was left with spider veins by all of the places they took veins or treated veins. The doctor even treated one of the spider veins that was caused and it just made it worse, are lasers the answer to get rid of them? I am only 25, and I feel very self conscience about them. And what is the cost of doing a laser treatment for spider veins? Thank you in advance!
