Reduce the appearance of facial veins, broken capillaries, and skin redness with effective laser treatment.
Facial spider veins are caused by rosacea, sun damage, alcohol, pregnancy, genetics, and other irritants.
Regardless of the cause, our various laser treatments can:
We offer several treatment options to effectively treat your facial veins.
Our Fotona and Coolglide lasers effectively remove unwanted facial veins using laser light. Pulses of laser light are flashed on to the skin and cause the blood within the vein to coagulate. Eventually the blood vessel will be destroyed and later absorbed by your body. Blood flow is then redirected to veins deeper below your skin’s surface.
Minimal downtime although some clients may experience some redness after the treatment.
Intense pulse light (IPL) treatment, also known as a photofacial, is a non-surgical facial treatment. IPL works by converting scattered light to heat energy, selectively cauterising the damaged facial veins. Minimal downtime although some clients may experience some redness after the treatment.
Our advanced Surgitron technique uses high frequency radio waves to cauterise the tiny blood vessel at various intervals along its path; we can interrupt its flow and thereby its own supply of nutrients and oxygen, and destroy the vein as a result. This was done successfully for years with electrolysis machines by beauty therapists and it is a good method. We have a little advance on this technique now with the use of the Surgitron. The use of high frequency radio waves rather than electricity appears to be more precise and less painful than the electrolysis machines.
There is no real down time and most people could return to work immediately.
Sclerotherapy is a fine injections therapy, which works by injecting a solution directly into the vein. This method is good for larger veins and for people with a large network or cluster of facial veins. The solution flushes through and swells the vein walls and closes them off as a result.
Post-treatment there can be swelling around the injected area, which can take a few days to settle. Makeup can hide this a little but some clients may prefer to take time off work if it bothers them.
Though facial veins can be caused by a variety of factors, the most common causes are rosacea, sun damage, genetics and weather.
Depending on the size & severity of the veins and course of treatment, recovery can take anywhere from 3-7 days.
