I elevate my legs daily when i get home and I've done so every day for past month after getting sclerotherapy And I was wondering: could hat be detrimental to the results? If I elevate my legs daily, promoting circulation could i be reopening or not letting veins close by having blood keep flowing?
Answer: Sclerotherapy Thank you for your question in regards to sclerotherapy. Elevating your legs post sclerotherapy will not determine your results. It is very important to wear compression stockings following this type of treatment. To be sure what is best for you, see two or more board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Answer: Enhance your Sclerotherapy Elevating your legs is not going to decrease your results, but it also isn't necessarily going to help them. I would recommend wearing medical grade compression hose daily. It is very important to do after treatments with sclerotherapy, but also they will prevent further development after the treatments are complete. I would also recommend seeing a vascular specialist or dermatologist to discuss your treatment plan in more detail.

Answer: Elevation of legs after sclerotherapy Elevation of the legs after sclerotherapy does not affect or improve the results of the treatment. It elevation of the legs improves leg discomfort or heaviness, I would recommend seeing an vein specialist to have a complete evaluation of your venous system in your legs. This may require a more in depth treatment protocol.
