I had sclerotherapy done nearly three weeks ago and I can't tell if veins are improving. Parts of the veins have disappeared but the rest sometimes looks worse, other times a little better .. is this normal? Could the veins still be closing and clotting this far post treatment? My veins get pretty achy at times too, especially in the past week.
Answer: Post sclerotherapy compression and use of topicals Compression is very important in the post procedure care and recovery from sclerotherapy ! Make sure you use the following topicals to reduce likelihood of hyperpigmentation of the overlying skin. You need to use some adjunctive measures after sclerotherapy to reduce post inflammatory hyperpigmentation. it is those that don't follow such instructions immediately following sclerotherapy, starting on day1 (next day) that seem to get retained hyperpigmentation. I recommend 2 creams: Scleroquin plus and Sclerovase and also Scler-X supplement to reduce post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (see link below) as well as compression stockings for at least 2 weeks.

Answer: Sclerotherapy results It is still too early to determine the results of your treatment. Everything you have described is very normal and expected. Generally the improvement will be evident and significant around week 8 and continue to improve over the next few months. Patience along with good technique by the treating physician is key to a nice cosmetic outcome.
