Thread Vein Treatment

Treating Thread Veins / Spider Veins

Thread veins are small facial red veins that commonly appear around the nose, cheeks, and eyelids. Sometimes known as spider veins. They are often caused by many years of unprotected sun exposure, genetics, or extended years of alcoholic consumption.

VeinAway thermocoagulation, is the most respected technology on the market today, and is used extensively in the USA and in our Beaconsfield clinic. It is the safe way to reduce and remove thread veins/spider veins with minimal discomfort.

Sharp bursts of high energy are carefully probed onto each micro-vein, causing the blood vein walls to collapse, be shut off, and die. The sight of each vein therefore quickly disappears, leaving the skin clear and unblemished.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are Thread Veins / small red veins on face?

Thread Veins / small red veins (also known as spider veins, fine veins, or Telangiectasia), are small, red, pink, and blue blood vessels that appear most frequently on the face. The small blood-carrying Thread veins are particularly common around the cheeks, nose, eyelids, and chin.

Are thread veins / red veins, permanent?

Thread Veins or the small red veins on the side of the nose, chin, or cheeks do not have to be permanent. If the correct technology is used, such as VeinAway, and is performed safely by an expert such as Skin Revision, then the veins will disappear permanently.

What is the best treatment for small red veins on the face?

We strongly believe that the advanced technology in VeinAway is the best treatment for small red thread veins on the face. Having previously used Thermavein, we have found that VeinAway has produced quicker and more permanent results. There is also less discomfort during the treatment, especially around the nose, chin, cheeks, and eyelids.

What is the best treatment for Thread Veins on legs?

We only perform the removal of small red veins, spider veins, and thread veins on the face, nose, cheeks, chin and eyelids.

What do I do after the treatment?

Gentle washing of the face is allowed but it is important not to scrub in any circumstance or use scented soap.
Do not use makeup on the treated area
Avoid rubbing or stretching the skin
Avoid alcohol or spicy food if you are sensitive to redness (Rosacea)
For 72 hours, avoid excessive exercise or anything to cause dilation of the capillaries
Avoid direct sunlight for 72 hours or longer if the area has not healed. Then use a minimum SPF30 over the treated area. Ideally, this should be applied all year round.
Avoid sun beds, tanning creams, and saunas for at least a week.

Thread veins or small red veins (broken capillaries) do not generally disappear on their own. With VeinAway, it is the perfect way to eliminate the thread veins permanently. Once they have been removed and the appropriate aftercare/homecare is given, the veins on the face will not come back in the same area.

Does the treatment to remove Thread Veins, small red veins, hurt?

It does not hurt. In most areas such as the front of the nose, ears, cheeks, eyelid, and chin, there is a feeling of a needle touching the surface of the skin. In other areas such as within the sides of the nose, there is minimal discomfort. But the treatment is so quick and not an unpleasant experience. Compared to V Beauty or Thermavein, VeinAway is a much more pleasant overall experience.

Where can I get treatment for the removal of Thread Veins

These can be hereditary, through excessive time in the sun over time, or by extended years of alcohol consumption or general lifestyle.
