I Had Veinwave Treatment 3 Months Ago for Thread Veins. Why Has It Made the Viens Worse?

Labradorlover
My partner and i both agree the veins are now more promenant and i have more restriction on the skirts and dresses i can wear. Why has it done this when the promotion for this treatment says it is risk free. It was also quite painful treatment as the probe was quite hot. I have read that other people have had their veins made worse by this treatment.
