Our advanced Red Vein Removal procedure is like a magic eraser for your skin, using Candela and KTP laser treatment to remove spider veins, broken capillaries, cherry angiomas, rosacea and more. It’s ideal for capillary reduction and is suitable for the face, neck and chest.
The low down
We recommend Laser Red Vein Removal treatment for clients with skin types 1 – 3 who suffer from skin conditions such as broken capillaries, spider veins, cherry angiomas, damaged facial vessels or other facial veins. The treatment is not suitable for darker skin types 4 – 6.
We typically recommend up to three initial skin treatments. Most facial veins and red spots disappear during the course of treatment. Large and stubborn veins may reduce in size and require ongoing maintenance.
For the best value and results, our Skin Journeys™ combine in-clinic treatments with at-home skincare.
Some vessels may shrink or disappear altogether during the vein treatment, while others may initially darken before disappearing over the next two weeks. Immediately after the treatment, the treated area will experience mild sensitivity, some warmth and redness which will dissipate over the following 24 – 48 hours.
Rest assured, Laser Red Vein Removal is only mildly uncomfortable. The concentrated heat from the laser can create a prickly sensation that some people say is uncomfortable but not distressing. Any post-treatment discomfort usually settles within 2 – 4 hours.
We recommend 4 – 6 weeks between treatments. Schedule maintenance treatments as new veins and blood vessels appear.
