After sclerotherapy treatments, when does the brownish color go away? (photo)

ontheflatside
I am a black female and I had sclerotherapy treatments a month ago on the front of my leg for the straight bluish green veins and the wiggly bluish green veins on the back of my leg. The veins turned a brownish color. How long will it take the brownish color to fade away. I'v had sclerotherapy treatments before about 7 yrs ago and I did not have this problem. My legs bruised but the bruising did not last long. I have another appt. next week but now Im skeptical about keeping it. Thanks!
