Answer: Post EVLT sclerotherapy. Sclerotherapy is usually done for spider veins or to treat varicose veins. If you do not have varicose veins then it seems that the sclerotherapy would be done for spider veins and this is considered a cosmetic procedure. If you do not want to treat spider veins then there should be no reason to have sclerotherapy.

Answer: Sclerotherapy option After medically treating reflux with EVLA or RFA, guided ultrasound sclerotherapy or phlebectomy are options to consider if there is remaining reflux in tributary veins and if symptoms are present. Otherwise, sclerotherapy treatment can be done cosmetically as an option to treat spider veins. After cosmetic sclerotherapy, use sun protection and wear compression stockings for a week.
