What is Thread Vein Removal?
At The Clinic, our approach to thread vein removal involves harnessing the cutting-edge technology of the most advanced Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) system available in the market. This innovative system is specifically designed to target and treat spider veins. The procedure operates by utilizing light to generate controlled heat within the veins. The heat induces the collapse of the vein walls, leading to the formation of scar tissue. Over time, these treated veins are naturally reabsorbed by the body, gradually fading away over the course of several weeks.
This technique has demonstrated exceptional efficacy not only in addressing spider veins but also in effectively treating varicose veins and cherry angiomas. The transformative process initiates with the collapse of the vein walls, paving the way for the formation of scar tissue. Subsequently, the body’s natural healing mechanisms come into play as the treated veins are gradually reabsorbed, resulting in a noticeable reduction or elimination of the thread veins.
Frequently Asked Questions
HOW DOES THE TREATMENT FEEL?
WHAT RESULTS WILL I SEE?
Most people describe the discomfort as tolerable, like the flick of an elastic band or a very quick, hot pin prick. No anaesthesia is required and the skin is cooled before and after treatment.
This treatment helps to even out pigmentation and vascular irregularities, such as thread veins, whilst also stimulating the production of collagen and elastin to reduce lines and wrinkles.
WHAT IS THE AFTERCARE?
• Make-up can be applied after several hours if the skin is not sore.
• Avoid strenuous exercise, hot baths and showers, sauna, steam, massage and anything that could heat or irritate the skin for 4-5 days after treatment.
• Use an SPF30 and protect the skin from direct sunlight during the treatment course and for at least a month after treatment ends to protect against hyperpigmentation.
