ThermaVein

WHAT IS THERMAVEIN?

ThermaVein is a safe, fast and effective treatment for unsightly thread/spider veins often referred to medically as telangiectasia.

ThermaVein can treat:

Facial thread veins
Milia
Skin tags
Cherry Angiomas / Campbell-de-Morgan spots

HOW IT WORKS?

We use an insulated probe which, when applied to the skin, causes the vein to empty. ThermaVein then seals the vein by gently heating the proteins in the vein wall causing a seal. The body then naturally reabsorbs the vein making this an instant and effective treatment.

Using a very low 4Mhz current ThermaVein does not coagulate the blood, a mechanism used in other treatments, making it a very safe and sort after treatment, with minimal downtime for clients.

ThermaVein FAQs

Is it painful?

There is a stinging sensation, not unlike a hair being plucked, though how noticeable this is will depend on the individual patient, and the area being treated. Anaesthetic creams are not to be used, but there is no restriction on the use of simple painkillers (such as paracetamol).

What are the after effects?

There will be initial redness in the treated area, but this should quickly fade on the day of treatment. On the second day very small scabs might develop at the points of contact, but these would typically resolve within a week or two, depending on the area and size. A concealer can be used on the scabs from the day after treatment, if required.

What aftercare is required?

Aftercare is minimal. A calming cream or aloe vera can be applied during the first day or two. Use of a broad spectrum sun cream is obligatory.
