Advanced epilation technique
Red veins or spider veins on the face can be a source of great embarrassment to some people and can create a ruddy appearance.
Facial Veins Treatment FAQs
Using an advanced epilation system, a tiny needle conducting a minute current is applied just underneath the skin surface into the vessels along the affected area.
The blood vessel is cauterized, i.e. destroyed by heat. The skin is blanched and the red colour disappears, the blood being reabsorbed by the body. The duration of a facial treatment is about 15-20 minutes.
The area may feel a little hot a few minutes later. Soothing, cooling pads may be applied after the procedure.
Typically, 2-4 treatments may be required to clear facial veins but after one treatment there will be a noticeable difference. Subsequent appointments are made at 2-3 week intervals
Minute, honey-coloured crusts may form on the skin surface. These are often visible, except on very close inspection. They fall off in about 4 days (face) or 3 weeks (legs), and may leave a pink patch of skin which fades.
