Thread veins are very small veins that are most commonly visible on the cheeks, nose and legs. In some people they expand and show through the skin, giving a red or purplish appearance.

The treatment area is assessed during consultation; the price and estimate of the number of sessions that will be required will be made.

Louisa Henderson, our practice nurse, can successfully remove unsightly red veins from the legs by either sclerotherapy or with the latest 'Vein Wave' Technology, which ever is most appropriate for your particular condition..

What is Veinwave?
Veinwave is a revolutionary new treatment that utilises a high frequency wave that causes the blood inside the tiny veins to coagulate. The walls of the vein stick together and the vein disappears instantaneously. Many thread veins can be treated in one 15 minute session.

What is Sclerotherapy?
Sclerotherapy is a non-surgical procedure used to treat unsightly but otherwise non-troublesome surface veins. A small amount of sclerosant is injected into the treated veins using an extremely fine needle.

The solution displaces the blood, ultimately closing down the veins which are then reabsorbed by the body. This not only removes the unsightly veins, but actually improves circulation to the treated areas.

Sclerotherapy is effective anywhere on the body, but particularly on the legs.
