Unwanted Superficial Veins
Using advanced radiofrequency techniques you can be get rid of your spider veins and facial thread veins.
Unwanted superficial veins stem from different sources. Telangiectasias, which often appear on the cheeks and nose are groups of dilated capillaries and are most commonly found in people with excessive sun exposure, Rosacea. Spider naevi are dilated capillaries fed directly by an arteriole. They can be solitary or multiple and can occur anywhere on the body. Spider naevi can occur spontaneously or in pregnancy, with oral contraceptive use, or in liver disease. Spider Angiomas are sometimes seen in childhood. They usually cause no symptoms.
How does it work?
In this treatment, an electric current from a hand held probe is used to destroy the superficial aspect of the skin overlying the lesion. Because these vessels are very superficial, they are usually easily destroyed. The procedure is quick, relatively inexpensive and requires little recovery time.
What are the risks?
For a tiny, solitary vessel, no Anaesthesia is needed. However, for larger areas, local Anaesthetic is required. Rarely, bleeding, scarring and discoloration (whiteness) can occur at the treated site.
How long does it take?
For each area the procedure is completed within minutes and you will notice the veins disappear and a feint pale scar in its place.
What happens afterwards?
There may be mild swelling and redness which can last a few hours.
Do the veins recur?
This technique destroys unwanted small veins but cannot prevent new ones from appearing. |
