Thread vein removal at S3 Dental
Thread veins are red and purple blood vessels that occur in patches on the legs and face. They look like small spider webs, which is why they are also called spider veins. Another term for the same problem is naevi. Spider veins
What causes unwanted thread veins?
Red, blue or purple leg and facial veins can be a result of sun exposure, use of oral contraception, hormone therapy, age or genetics.
How does laser treatment work for thread veins?
A cosmetic laser emits a prescribed dose of energy to the vein. The laser “selectively” targets the problem veins while sparing surrounding areas. After treatment, the vessel will naturally disappear.
How many treatments are required to remove thread veins?
Typically only one or two treatments are required and results can be seen in 3 - 4 weeks. Treatment time usually varies between 10 and 20minutes, depending on the size of the area treated.
Does laser thread vein removal hurt?
The treatment causes only minimal discomfort. Any redness or swelling should be gone within a day and you'll be able to resume normal activities immediately.
