How long does the swelling generally last after having sclerotherapy done? (Photo)

medicalissue
Both legs done, 1 side I wear a compression bandage on it and is looking good but the other side just had 1 spot done and the doctor just wrapped it, this side is noticeably more swollen. When can I begin to expect to see the swelling start to go down? I do levitate that leg but it really doesn’t make much of a difference.
