How does Caffeine affect Sclerotherapy?

September 20, 2014
Asked By:Callico1 in Las Vegas, NV

I had Sclerotherapy on the side of my forehead/Temple area last week. The care sheet that was sent home with me said no caffeine for a week. I was wondering why and how caffeine could negatively affect the treatment. I ask because I have never seen this or heard of it before. Thank you in advance for any info!
