Sclerotherapy on abdomen. Should I get the treatment again?

June 7, 2017
Asked By:chellie123 in Detroit, MI

I have had sclerotherapy done on my abdominal veins. I have had 2 treatments. Right after the 2nd treatment i noticed the veins were basically gone. Now it has been 6 weeks and they are back. Not as visible as they were before the first treatment, but I can still see them. Should I get the treatment again? Is it bad to wait a couple months to see if they end up going away? Or will this defeat the purpose of having the 2 treatments.
