Bad results and feedback

I went for sclerotherapy and will not recommend them for this treatment. The experience was very painful for me and afterwards my legs had the same sensation as restless legs syndrome and I started itching all over my legs. Wearing the compression stockings was also uncomfortable and it caused ingrown hair, but I kept wearing it. I visited my dermatologist 4 weeks after the treatment. I told him about my experience and asked him to comment on the results. He told me that the treatment time the vascular centre team spent injecting my veins was too short and that the veins were not filled correctly/ all the way. I contacted the vascular centre, sent my after pics and enquired about an extra mark I have at one of the injection sites. I was told to wait a few more weeks for improvement.

So after sending more emails and "after treatment" pictures I got feedback 14 weeks after my treatment that it seems like not all the veins have sealed and I need to repeat the injections, at my cost.

My response was that it differs from my dermatologist's feedback and that I won't be coming back to them because of all the pain I have experienced. I also see NO improvement, but actually have more marks than before (at injection sites). The last communication took place the 17th of January and I have not received a response up to date.
