Sclerotherapy for under eye veins - is it safe and effective?

February 15, 2023
Asked By:eyesore in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

Is this the best treatment for prominent veins appearing under your eyes? Is this safe and better than laser in the perioorbital area? Is one treatment usually enough? I have one prominent vein under each eye.

Branstarkgirl95, I don't know that sex can affect the results of sclerotherapy on legs. Of course I don't think this has been studied. To my thinking, the pressure changes in the veins are greater from arising from laying down than those that occur during sex. So I would think that having sex...
