These broken veins appear when the vein dilates and become larger and visible through the transparency of the skin.
Thread veins are extremely common and completely harmless, but sometimes can be embarrassing.
The causes of thread veins are unknown although they may be caused by:
~ Changes in temperature
~ Damage from sun exposure
~ Smoking
~ Hormonal changes
~ Alcohol
~ Prolonged standing
~ Possible inherited condition
Laser
thread vein removal is a relatively painless treatment that increases the production of collagen, making those vessels naturally disappear.
Our clients often see a visible reduction in unwanted veins by as much as 75% with one to three treatments.
We use medical-grade
YAG laser for fast, effective results. The number of treatments will depend on the size of the capillaries and their location. Usually, smaller capillaries respond more quickly to the treatment. To maintain results achieved, we recommend treatments every 6-12 week intervals.
