Laser thread vein removal

Thread veins, or telangiectasia, are small, dilated venules (tiny blood vessels) near the surface of the skin. They are so called as they cause threadlike red lines or patterns on the skin.

These patterns, or telangiectasis, form gradually and often appear in clusters. Thread veins are sometimes known as spider veins due to their weblike appearance.

Thread veins are common on the face, particularly on the nose and cheeks, and on the legs. They are usually caused by age, trauma, sun exposure or alcohol.

The benefits of laser thread vein removal

Laser thread vein removal has the following benefits:

  • Targeted treatment which leaves the surrounding skin unharmed
  • Thread veins are quickly broken down and reabsorbed by the body
  • Instant results that improve over time
  • Any area of the body can be treated

Laser therapy is a highly effective treatment used to eliminate thread veins.

This gentle treatment uses focused light energy to target the veins. The laser light is absorbed by the red blood cells and converted into heat energy. Your blood then coagulates and the vessel walls of your thread vein collapse.

In time, the vein is broken down and absorbed by the body, but you should see results soon after treatment.

Real patients, real results

From JF - Huntingdon:

Dan is fantastic at what he does, so technically knowledgeable and professional. With his wonderful personality, he really has made me feel at ease every step of the way. The treatment has been life changing, it has boosted my confidence so much. I’m now confident to wear shorts and dresses without having to apply camouflage makeup to my legs first. I cannot fully explain how liberating it feels to just put on a pair of shorts or a dress now and go. The difference it’s made to my life is amazing.

Dan used laser treatment to significantly improve the appearance of this patient's thread veins.

Dan's used laser treatment to permanently remove the thread veins to the side of this patient's nose. After just one treatment the larger thread veins have already visibly reduced or disappeared altogether.

FAQ

Laser thread vein removal

Thread veins, or telangiectasia, are small, dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin. They are so called as they cause threadlike red lines on the skin. They are very common.

The laser light is absorbed by the red blood cells and converted into heat energy.

The blood then coagulates, causing the vessel walls of your thread vein to collapse. Once broken down, the vein is absorbed by the body.

Laser thread vein removal is a gentle, yet highly effective treatment. The targeted nature of the laser means that the surrounding skin is unharmed.

Any area of the body can be treated, but most commonly treated are the face and legs.

Initial results are apparent immediately following treatment. As the thread vein breaks down and is absorbed by the body, results improve over time.

Depending on your thread veins, you may need several treatments for optimal results.

This varies from patient to patient, your practitioner will discuss your treatment plan with you at your initial consultation, which is free of charge.

Please see above for treatment prices.
