Usually days to weeks but can certainly take much longer. Please see your provider for follow up until complete resolution !!

This particular adhesive has long been used to treat variety of vascular conditions with excellent safety profile. But one should consider other options (such as Radiofrequency or laser ablation) if not comfortable with possible complications.

Questions you should ask,
(1) Is it available ?
(2) Am I a candidate ?
(3) What if I have reaction(s) after Venaseal treatment ? Do you pre-treat ??
(4) Risks and benefits ?

Venaseal is nonthermal ablation technique of saphenous veins only !!! One thing I would like to add is that you will benefit from consultation with an experienced and properly trained provider for your leg. You will most likely have venous insufficiency and may require thermal ablations of saphenous veins first !!

Please consult a properly trained provider and have US evaluation for proper treatment. US will show that you may need ablation of saphenous veins first then have phlebectomy or sclerotherapy.
