Thermavein Treatment
While typically not dangerous, many people with thread veins, milia or skin tags would rather have them treated for aesthetic reasons as the condition can cause people to become self-conscious.
What does Thermavein treat?
Spider veins, or red facial thread veins, are small visible blood vessels that can appear in clusters, often on the face and legs. They are particularly noticeable on the face due to the thinner, more delicate skin around areas such as the nose, cheeks, and chin.
At Natural Face Aesthetics, we use advanced ThermaVein® technology to safely and effectively treat thread veins, helping to restore a clearer, more even skin tone.
We also treat common skin concerns such as milia and skin tags. Milia are small white bumps beneath the skin, while skin tags are soft, harmless growths that can develop in areas of friction.
Using precise, clinically led techniques, these concerns can be safely removed, leaving the skin smoother, clearer, and more refined.
How it works
ThermaVein® provides safe, fast and effective treatment for the removal of veins and vascular blemishes from across the entire body.
Using a thermocoagulation process, an insulated probe with a 4Mhz current is applied to the skin causing the vein to empty. ThermaVein® then creates a seal by gently heating the vein wall, allowing the body to naturally reabsorb the vein. The low current ensures the blood does not coagulate, making it very a safe and sought-after, walk-in walk- out treatment.
ThermaVein® can also be used to treat milia, skin tags, Campbell-de-Morgan spots, cherry angioma, spider naevi, vascular blemishes and ankle thread veins. The technology is also commonly used in conjunction with microsclerotherapy and advanced treatment options are also available.
