I had liquid sclerotherapy on one foot done 10 weeks ago. I'm concerned the staining may not go away, as there hasn't been much improvement. Is there anything i can do to help it like massage the foot or to prevent it happening on the other foot - the compression stocking i used was a surgical one with maximum compression around the ankle, which didn't seem right to me. This time he has used a bandage with graduated compression. The first 2 pictures are before surgery, the others are after.

There are many options to treat under eye veins including topical laser, fine needle RF and sclerotherapy. I usually use a combination of sclerotherapy for the larger veins and fine needle RF for the smaller. To find a doctor in your area to to the American College of Phlebology website.
