What is a Thread Vein Removal?

Vein Treatment

What does it do?

Thread vein removal is a treatment designed to reduce the appearance of thread veins — also referred to as spider veins or telangiectasia. These are tiny blood vessels just beneath the skin that can look like red or purple lines, typically on the face or legs.

This treatment targets these veins and destroys them using effective methods that leave your skin with a more even smoother look. One of the most common things people want to have done to their face is getting rid of these, as people just want to feel more confident and have better skin.

Several benefits include:

  • Minimally invasive
  • Instant results
  • Improved appearance
  • Minimal downtime
  • Boosted confidence

The procedure
Personalised Vein Solutions
How many thread vein removal sessions will I need?

Most thread veins can get treated over a single or two sessions depending on their size and location. After a comprehensive evaluation of the area, a bespoke treatment plan will be formulated to suit your individual needs.

Lasting Vein Clarity
How long do the results of thread vein removal last?

Removal of the thread vein provides optimal results because the treated veins are completely removed. But some new veins are likely to emerge over time, particularly based on your body and lifestyle.

Gentle Vein Care
Does it hurt?

Thread vein removal is a painless treatment. Most people describe it as feeling like a tiny sting or a quick snap, like a rubber band. Treatments such as laser or injections are designed to be mild, so any discomfort tends to be minor.

Quick Vein Fix
How long does the treatment take?

Appointments typically last 30 minutes or so, but the treatment itself may be just seconds or minutes, depending on your case.

Effective Vein Solutions
Do thread veins disappear on their own?

Thread veins typically do not go away on their own. In fact, they can grow larger or more prominent as time passes. Creams don’t do much good, but the good news is thread vein removal treatments such as IPL or Sclerotherapy can be effective, depending on their size and location.
