How many sclerotherapy treatments and/or laser treatments are necessary?
Regardless of the type of treatments needed, the number of treatment sessions varies depending upon the extent of vein disease, patient compliance with the post-treatment instructions and types of veins present. People usually have a mixture of diseased veins and each type of vein requires different treatment. Spider veins usually require three to five treatments, larger reticular veins more, and large varicose veins even more. Improvement will be noticed after every treatment and most people notice a fairly good degree of improvement after just three to four treatments.
