Is it okay to have Sclerotherapy the day before breast augmentation?

Thank you for your question. It’s unlikely that having breast augmentation the day after sclerotherapy will pose any significant risks. However, you should spend at least few days resting after your breast augmentation, which may increase your chances of developing a blood clot the day after getting vein therapy. Talk to your breast augmentation surgeon about your concerns, as well as the injector who performs your sclerotherapy. Good luck!

Thank you for your question in regards to sclerotherapy. It is best to discuss treatments prior to surgery with your surgeon. Sclerotherapy typically has no downtime, but compression stockings are required post treatment for optimal results. It would be very uncomfortable, and nearly impossible to put on the stockings alone post breast augmentation. 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.

There shouldn’t be any issue having sclerotherapy injections before a breast augmentation, or any surgery really. There is no down time with sclerotherapy but I do recommend walking quite a bit after sclerotherapy to decrease the chances of developing a clot.  If you are down for a few days after the augmentation, I would sure hate you to develop a clot. There will be some down time with the breast augmentation. Ask your surgeon to make sure they won’t have a problem with it, but I would suggest you space them out by a few days.
