Facial Thread Veins:
These are not broken capillaries but permanently dilated capillaries. They have very thin walls, which constantly dilate and constrict. As we age, these vessels lose their elasticity and can become permanently dilated.
There are numerous causes including: ageing, hereditary, pregnancy, the rubbing of spectacles, temperature extremes and harsh weather exposure, hormones and skin fragility. They are commonly seen in a maturing ‘English Rose’ complexion.
The Treatment
Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) is used to help clear up unsightly red capillaries on the face.
The Science
The Intense Pulsed Light will effectively remove the dilated capillaries by coagulating the blood in the tiny vessels. The vessel then collapses and disappears.
The Results
Results are excellent, with a visible reduction in troublesome areas, right from the first treatment.
Leg Veins (Micro-Sclerotherapy):
The Treatment
Micro-Sclerotherapy is the best treatment available for those superficial and unsightly broken veins on the legs. The removal of these superficial veins does not affect your deep venous system and the sclero solution is quite harmless to the rest of the body.
The Science
The tip of a bevelled needle, containing a tiny drop of solution, is introduced into the thread vein. The solution enters the vein, causing it to blanch and tingle for a second or two. This then becomes temporarily reddened, as the lining of the vein is irritated. After a while the sides of the vein will either collapse, or swell and stick together, sealing off the vein and preventing the passage of more blood.
The Results
The closing down process of the vein can continue for several weeks or even months after the final treatment. The width of the broken vein will determine whether it is necessary to repeat the treatment. Most clients are delighted with the improvement after just one treatment. Minute scabbing or slight discoloration at the injection site is transient and legs may feel a little tender for the next few days.
An initial consultation may take up to 15 minutes, then a further 15-30 minutes, depending on the area to be treated.
