LASER Vein REMOVAL
A vein is a small blood vessel that sits near the surface of the skin. During vein removal treatment, laser light targets the blood that contains haemoglobin within the vessels.
The haemoglobin absorbs the laser light emitted converting it into heat.
This heat destroys the protein in wall of the vein vessel causing it to collapse and disperses the blood. The vessel is then reabsorbed naturally by the white blood cells with the body.
An in-depth consultation with your thread vein removal specialist will be carried out to assess your personal needs before a treatment programme can proceed.
This is followed with a patch test to determine skin response and the size of vessels before treating unwanted veins.

Facial blood vessels – also known as telangiectasia, thread veins and spider veins – can be really noticeable in some people, particularly if you suffer from rosacea.
Telangiectasia usually appears in clusters as pink or red lines near the surface of our skin. Generally, it is caused as a result of too much sun (damages blood vessels), alcoholism (affects blood flow), pregnancy (applies pressure on vessels) and rosacea (enlarges vessels). Ageing also has a big impact as blood vessels begin to weaken.
Laser is an effective solution for telangiectasia but can only
be used on certain skin types.
