How long does it take for the body to absorb veins treated with sclerotherapy?

April 29, 2014
Asked By:nielsen in Oakland, CA

I have always had thin skin but as I've gotten older (and probably due to sun exposure) it has gone from translucent to literally transparent. Dozens of reticular veins are visible. I have had two sclerotherapy sessions on just my calves in the past month and there has been little improvement. Am I being impatient or did it just not work? I am expecting it to cost me 3k to treat all my leg veins, but if it isn't going to work I'd rather not throw my money away.
