Thread Vein Treatment
Thread Vein Removal
What is thread vein laser removal?
​
Thread vein laser removal is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser technology to remove or reduce the appearance of thread veins. Thread veins are small blood vessels that are visible through the skin and are often found on the face, legs, and other areas of the body. Laser treatment for thread veins is a safe and effective way to improve the appearance of these veins, resulting in clearer and more even-looking skin.
​
How does it work?
​
The laser used in thread vein removal targets the pigment in the blood vessels, causing the blood to coagulate and the vessels to collapse. The body then absorbs the collapsed veins, and they gradually disappear over time. The laser also stimulates collagen production, which helps to improve the texture and tone of the skin.

Is it safe?
​
Yes, thread vein laser removal is a safe treatment. The laser used is a non-invasive and non-surgical procedure that is performed by our trained prescribing pharmacist. However, like any medical treatment, there may be some potential risks and side effects, which will be discussed with you during your consultation.
​
Who is a good candidate?
​
Thread vein laser removal is suitable for anyone who is bothered by the appearance of thread veins on their face or body. However, there are certain factors that may make some people better candidates than others. This includes:
-
Those with fair skin and dark thread veins tend to respond best to treatment.
-
Those with certain medical conditions may not be suitable for treatment. This will be assessed during your consultation.
​
How many treatments are needed?
​
The number of treatments required will depend on the severity of the thread veins and the area being treated. In general, most patients require between 1-3 treatments for optimal results. Your prescribing pharmacist will discuss the expected number of treatments during your consultation.
