I'm looking for Canadian Drs that perform sclerotherapy on blue chest veins (which are still horribly prominent after 8 weeks post op BA) Giving it all time to settle, but at my 6 month mark, if they haven't gotten ALOT less noticeable, I want sclerotherapy treatment, or implant removal. Can't find Drs who do this in Canada. Help! Ottawa or Toronto ON, would be great. Losing hope, again. I love my new breasts, but I cannot enjoy them at all.. Too veiny.

Thank you for your question. Reticular veins as you describe or varicose veins can be treated with sclerotherapy. I agree that full assessment of the legs should be done with venous Doppler ultrasound to determine if you have venous insufficiency.BestDr H Karamanoukian#RealSelf100 Member
It is important to get a venous Duplex scan to make sure there is no upper extremity DVT before hand veins are addressed.H Karamanoukian MD FACS

Great question! Eyelid vessels can be treated with a KTP (532nm) laser depending on location and size. I know you couldn't provide a good picture, but it seems like it may be worth to have someone look at the vessels to see if they would be amenable to treatment. You will have to wear metal...
