Following EVLA treatment, we advise that you do not drive yourself anywhere until the following day. This is due to the local anaesthesia used to numb your skin during the procedure. Driving on the following day is perfectly fine, of course.

If you are undergoing foam sclerotherapy or microsclerotherapy, you can drive yourself home.
