Spider Vein Removal in Surrey

Spider Vein Treatments At Our Surrey Clinic

We offer a range of safe and effective treatments to reduce the appearance of thread veins on the face and body. Each treatment is carefully chosen based on your skin type, the severity of the veins, and the area being treated, ensuring the best results with minimal discomfort.

Spider vein treatments work by targeting the affected vessels beneath the skin, causing them to collapse and be naturally reabsorbed by the body. Over time, the treated veins dissolve, leaving your skin brighter and more evenly toned. These treatments are especially suitable for delicate areas, including the cheeks, nose, and legs.

Treatments for spider vein removal in Surrey usually take about 30 minutes, and several sessions may be needed to achieve the desired result. Get in touch with the Light Touch team to find out more about the treatment and if it’s right for you.

Spider Vein Removal Process

Consultation

During your consultation at our clinic in Surrey, our aesthetic experts will discuss the treatment and whether it is right for you. From this, they will be able to generate a tailored treatment plan.

Treatment

Spider vein removal at Light Touch in Surrey only takes 30 minutes to complete, with minimal downtime. Our powerful devices target vascular anomalies precisely to ensure their appearance fades.

Results

Spider vein removal treatment is very successful, capable of reducing the appearance of most spider veins to leave an even, clear skin tone.

Recommended Treatments in Surrey

IPL

Intense pulsed light treatment that helps revitalise the skin and even the skin tone by minimising pigmentation and thread (spider) veins.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

PRP treatment uses the power of your own blood in order to treat a variety of concerns. PRP can be used to improve the appearance of ageing skin, skin injuries and scars.

Polynucleotides Skin Rejuvenation

Polynucleotide injections offer patients an entirely new form of anti-ageing injectables, reversing the signs of ageing and skin damage from within.

Microsclerotherapy Vein Treatment

Microsclerotherapy uses a very fine needle to inject a small quantity of diluted “sclerosant” into the thread veins which causes them to shrink and disappear.

Short Wave Diathermy

Short Wave Diathermy, also known as electro-coagulation or electro cautery, eliminates vascular anomalies on the surface of the skin through a process called electrolysis.

Spider Vein Treatment in Surrey Advice

Before

We recommend avoiding sun exposure, tanning products, and retinol-based skincare for at least a week before treatment. This helps to reduce skin sensitivity and delivers the best results from the treatment.

Please let us know if you are currently taking any medications or have had any recent skin treatments, as these may affect your suitability. Arrive for your session with clean, makeup-free skin in the treatment area so that we can begin swiftly and safely.

After

Mild redness or warmth in the treated area is normal following your spider vein removal treatment. This usually subsides within a few hours. We recommend avoiding hot showers, intense exercise, and direct sunlight for at least 48 hours post-treatment to support healing and minimise irritation.

For optimal results, continue to protect your skin with high-factor SPF and follow any personalised aftercare instructions given by our team. Most clients see visible improvements after just a few sessions, with long-lasting results and minimal downtime.

Spider Vein Removal in Surrey – Frequently Asked Questions

During your initial consultation, we will be able to discuss the suitability of spider vein treatment for you. Our range of treatments is extremely effective and highly recommended for those who want to reduce the appearance of vascular anomalies.

Thread vein removal can be performed on multiple areas, including the face, legs, chest, and ankles. Whether your concern is broken capillaries on the cheeks or visible veins on the lower limbs, we offer safe and targeted solutions for delicate and larger areas alike.

Spider vein removal involves using precise, expert techniques to collapse and fade visible thread veins without damaging the surrounding skin.

Our experienced practitioners examine your skin during consultation and choose the most suitable way to treat broken capillaries safely and effectively.

The welfare and safety of all patients is our number one priority, and every step is taken to ensure treatments are carried out safely and efficiently.

Our treatments are clinically considered to have very good safety rates, and all practitioners at Light Touch Clinic are regularly trained and updated in line with the latest technologies and techniques.

Spider vein removal is generally well-tolerated and should not cause significant discomfort. During the procedure, you may feel a mild warming sensation on the skin. If needed, one of our practitioners can apply a cooling treatment for added comfort during the session.

Some clients may experience minor bruising or temporary skin discolouration in the treated area, typically lasting up to a few days. These side effects are mild and tend to diminish with each session as your skin adjusts to the treatment.

Spider veins are sometimes called thread veins, but their real name is telangiectasias. They can appear red, blue, or sometimes even purple. Their web-like appearance is caused by clusters of tiny damaged blood vessels near the surface of the skin.

The damage is caused when the one-way valves in the veins weaken and allow blood to flow backwards rather than forwards. The pressure of the extra volume of blood causes the wall of the vein to bulge, and over time, unsightly discolouration of the skin will occur.

Spider veins on the face can result from sun damage, alcohol consumption, or may be a symptom of rosacea. Women are more prone to developing spider veins than men, largely due to hormonal fluctuations.

Many women first notice spider veins during or after pregnancy, and both the pill and HRT can be risk factors. However, age, sitting and standing for long periods, weight gain, and family history can all play a part.

Spider veins that have been treated do not reappear, making the results of the treatment long-lasting. However, new thread veins might form over time as a result of genetics, sun exposure, or prolonged standing. Maintenance treatments may be required to retain clear and even skin in the long term.

The best treatment depends on the location, depth, and appearance of your thread veins. At Light Touch Clinic, we offer a range of advanced options:

IPL: Uses controlled light energy to gently break down visible blood vessels close to the skin’s surface.

PRP: Stimulates natural skin healing and regeneration, which can help improve skin tone and minimise vascular visibility over time.

Polynucleotides: Promote cellular repair and skin regeneration, enhancing the overall condition of skin affected by broken capillaries.

Microsclerotherapy: Involves injecting a solution into the thread veins, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body.

Short Wave Diathermy: Delivers targeted heat via a fine needle to cauterise and fade small thread veins through electrolysis.

After spider vein removal, you can expect a smoother, more even skin tone. This can be achieved through a series of treatments ranging from 1 – 5 sessions, depending on your individual case and desired results.

Your appearance can be younger, brighter and clearer for a considerable amount of time. The condition of your skin will be analysed at a pre-treatment consultation, upon which your practitioner can recommend the right treatment variation and estimate how long the results are likely to last.

Mild swelling and bruising are often seen in patients following this treatment and will usually ease within a few days. It is common for the skin on the treated area to become darker for up to 1 week, and it will return to your normal tone after this time.

However, as your treatment course progresses, this period of skin discolouration will get shorter.

Once treated, spider veins usually do not return, although new ones may emerge over time due to factors such as ageing, genetics, or lifestyle. With proper skin care and occasional maintenance, many clients see long-term benefits from their treatment.

The number of treatments necessary will vary according to the severity and location of your thread veins.

Some clients show results after just one session, while others benefit from a series of treatments. We’ll advise a personalised plan based on your goals during your consultation at our Weybridge clinic.

Removing facial thread veins requires precision and care. We use advanced techniques that are well-suited to the sensitive skin on the face, helping to minimise redness and restore an even skin tone over a short course of treatments.

Thread veins on the legs may require a different approach compared to facial veins due to their size and depth. We offer treatments that work below the surface to break down the visible vessels, improving skin appearance and reducing discolouration with little downtime.

Treatment costs vary according to the area being treated and the number of sessions required. We’ll provide a tailored quote during your consultation, along with a clear breakdown of the pricing and your personalised treatment plan.
