Questions and Answers

How does the treatment work?

Light energy is applied to the skin where it is readily absorbed by blood vessels, heating them to the point where they are destroyed. Following treatment, the vessels quickly clear as they are re absorbed by the body, leaving little or no trace of the original lesion.

Which types of veins can be treated?

Most red skin lesions, including facial thread veins, rosacea, spider naevi, and port wine stains can be treated very successfully.

How does the treatment feel?

Treatment can me mildly uncomfortable but no anaesthesia is required, most people describe the discomfort as tolerable.

Are there any side effects?

After treatment the area may feel warm for a few hours. Rarely, some delicate skin areas such as the cheeks or décolleté can be red and slightly swollen for up to 48 hours. Though very rare, there is a chance a small blister may form and there could be temporary lightening or darkening of the skin.

How long does each treatment take?

Treatments typically take from 15-45 minutes, depending on the type and size of lesion.

How many treatments are necessary?

Typically 3-5 treatments are needed for optimum results, though small lesions may clear in just a single session. Repeat treatments are spaced every 4 to 6 weeks.

Consultation Procedure

Prior to treatment, a consultation is conducted in which a medical history is taken to confirm suitability for treatment. This is also a good opportunity for you to ask any questions you may have. Before treatment commences you must provide written consent and a small patch test will be carried out.
