She had one major varicose vein in each leg and patches of spider veins in different places. I saw her in a swim suit a few weeks ago and her legs looked really, really good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-979032 Sat, 13 Jul 2013 04:26:32 +0000 annagybe 979032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's what they use on the main superficial veins that are often the source of the varicose veins. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-979012 Sat, 13 Jul 2013 03:53:01 +0000 Sanet 979012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zapotee - As far as I know the bruising varies from person to person. Mine has not been bad at all. I would never do it in summer though as wearing the compression socks in the heat cannot be fun.</p> <p>Annagybe - Is radio frequency what they use for veins on your face? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-978795 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 23:47:05 +0000 annagybe 978795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you need ablation (where they burn the vein from the inside out), radio frequency works better than laser. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-978655 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 21:16:59 +0000 Anonymous 978655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lyn, that's how I got mine.

I have a Patch of spider veins in one leg that are very unsightly! were you bruised for a long time? My doctor recommended that I wait until winter so I can cover the bruising with my clothing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-978435 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 17:58:13 +0000 texstyle 978435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet, I'm not one to do invasive treatments (or much any medical treatments) but I have read that they can use botox to "lift" your cheeks which I think is done to reduce the slight sagging of the jawline&nbsp;- IF it really bothers you.&nbsp; </p> <p>The easiest way (I've also read, seen on tv, etc.) is to wear your hair up or have a cut that is done so your ears show which visually "lifts" the jaw line. I know this works but I'm still pretty satisfied with my long hair (for now). I did look up some images of Helen Mirren for future inspiration and noticed a few of her most recent short cuts that were very flattering. Of course she might have had at least some minor face work done. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-978421 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 17:42:37 +0000 Janet 978421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool! I have a patch of veins on my lower leg that kind of looks like a bruise. It doesn't bother me much and never hurts, but I wonder if I might want to do this someday.&nbsp;</p> <p>I just wish there was something non-invasive that could be done about my&nbsp;jowls. :-/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sclerotherapy#post-978287 Fri, 12 Jul 2013 15:28:45 +0000 Sanet 978287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought I'll share this with you.</p> <p>About a year ago I went to see a dermatologist about one or two varicose and numerous spider veins on my legs. They weren't painful, but I felt self conscious wearing shorts or skirts and I felt they make me look old. The dermatologist referred me to a "vein doctor". I went for 2 sclerotherapy treatments last year and for another one today. The treatment has worked well and I think my legs look much better. For now I have to keep my legs up and wear compression stockings for the next few days.</p> <p>Next thing on my cosmetic enhancement list? My eyes. ;-D</p>
