What is Facial Thread Veins?

Thread veins also called spider veins, broken veins, and capillary veins. They are small red, blue or purple veins that usually appear near the surface of the skin on the face and legs. They take their name from their striking spider web pattern.

Spider veins can be caused by the backup of blood. They can also be caused by hormone changes, exposure to the sun, and injuries. Spider veins rarely are a serious health problem, but they can leave people feeling self-conscious since thread vein on some occasion is more visible than line and wrinkles.

Treatments for Facial Thread Veins

Laser Thread Vein Removal

At Beautysthetic, we have sourced the latest state-of-the-art equipment for the removal of spider veins and thread veins to ensure we deliver the safest most effective solution to our clients. Our laser vein removal procedure targets and cauterizes the veins, effectively cutting off the blood supply without damage to the epidermis or surrounding tissue. Our laser vein removal treatments are performed by highly trained skin specialists. In most cases, over 50% of spiders disappear after only 1 session.

Advanced Electrolysis

The treatment involves the practitioner applying a very fine, small probe about the size of an eyelash along the line of the capillary. A very small energy current is discharged, which helps to destroy the blood vessel and starve it of any nourishment. This helps to diminish the skin problem you are being treated for.

IPL Skin Rejuvenation

A Photo Rejuvenation IPL skin session uses advanced technology to gently target broken capillaries. The pulsed light heat destroys the broken capillary wall, cutting off the blood supply and leaving the surrounding healthy skin tissue untouched.

How does treatment work?

Our Asclepion QuadroStarPRO is the most advanced yellow laser available. It has a higher rate of absorption in red blood cells than any other lasers – meaning you get visible results much faster. So, if you have had facial thread veins treated previously on a laser course of at least six treatments, you could now achieve visible results from just the first session.

Small vessels in the face can usually be removed successfully with one to three treatments.

You would come in for an initial consultation, where an assessment of the veins and test patch would be carried out. After a test patch is carried out, you can book an appointment as soon as two days later. Should more than one treatment be needed, these will happen at four week intervals.

Like all laser treatments, there may be occasionally be some side effects in the form of mild crusting of the skin. Most of these disappear within three to ten days. To combat this, our laser has a highly efficient skin cooling system to calm and soothe the skin. This keeps side-effects to a minimum, and guarantees a safe and comfortable treatment.
