‘laser’ stands for Light Amplification by the stimulated emission of Radiation. The treatment works by applying a narrow 980nm laser beam to target the thread vein using a precise application. The red blood cells in the thread veins absorbs the laser energy, causing the blood within the vein to heat up which in turn, damages the wall of the vein. This causes the thread vein to close down and when it does, the body absorbs the vein, making it disappear.
The treatment can target thread veins in various area of the body, including the face, thighs, calves and ankles.
We book you in for an initial consultation and carry out a patch test – you’ll likely see instant results from the patch tested area alone! We then schedule you (minimum 24 hours post patch test) for your actual treatment. You’ll see a difference right from the first treatment however sometimes, with more stubborn areas you may need further treatment. We can discuss this with you at your consultation.
Pre and Post Treatment Guidance
No two concerns are ever the same and so we offer a complimentary consultation for this treatment. During the consultation we also carry out a patch test so that you can experience the treatment. Rest assured that we have looked to make the treatment affordable.
