How Long Should Legs be kept out of the Sun After a Varicose Vein Procedure?

Thank you for your question. In our office, we have our patients stay out of the sun and cover the legs with compression dressing/garment for 2 weeks.
I hope this helps.

After Varicose vein procedures, we advise our patients to avoid wearing lotions the day of the procedure—and to avoid vigorous exercise; hot baths, hot tubs, and saunas; as well as exposure to sunlight for at least one to two days after treatment. Patients should avoid taking aspirin or other blood thinners such as Motrin, Aleve or Advil at least three days prior to scheduled leg vein treatments. Taking Tylenol is fine.
