The laser is safe and FDA approved for use on thread red veins, the laser uses a specific wavelength to target the small vessels without causing damage to the skin or surrounding tissue. Our experienced laser practitioners work to medically regulated treatment protocols to ensure a safe and effective treatment.

Due to the energy and wavelength required we are only able to treat skin types 1-3 for thread veins. Most red veins are suitable for laser treatment however blue and varicose veins cannot be managed with laser. Patients with photo sensitising medication or conditions would not be suitable for treatment. At consultation our expert laser practitioners will carefully asses suitability for treatment.

Many people see immediate results from treatment with the vein discoloring and disappearing. We recommend 3 treatments to ensure that treated veins do not re-occur.

Results are permanent, however people with thread veins are often predisposed to the condition and may require further treatment in different areas in the future.
