Recurrence of Varicose veins
Current treatments for varicose veins and spider veins have very high
success rates. Although it is uncommon, these veins can return after
treatment. One reason may be hidden areas in the body where there is a lot
of pressure on the veins. This pressure may cause new spider veins.
Doctors can diagnose this with ultrasound. Another cause may be new
re-growth of vein branches. Doctors have found that tiny vein branches can
grow through scar tissue to connect to both deep and superficial veins
even after surgery.
