Spider Vein Sclerotherapy

Post Procedure Care:

• The graduated compression hosiery must be worn continuously for the first 24 hours after your procedure.
• Do not soak in a bath or hot tub.
• For one week after the procedure apply the graduated compression hosiery immediately upon rising in the morning and remove at night.
• If you experience some tenderness or discomfort at the site of the injection, you may use Extra Strength Tylenol as directed.

How the leg and injection site may look post procedure:

• Some bruising may be noticeable on or near the injection site.
• You may notice a small hard knot at the injection site; this may or may not be tender to touch.  This knot will resolve over a short period of time.
• The veins initially after the procedure will look worse before they look better.
• You may notice a brownish discoloration on or near the injection site. This discoloration will fade away, however it may take 1 year for it to completely fade away.
