Facial vein treatment

Hello again and a belated Happy New Year. With the year moving on swiftly and with any luck better weather approaching, I wanted to update you about the treatment available now for facial veins, including red veins and spider veins, which is called Veinwave Thermocoagulation.

Facial veins are common in both men and women and particularly seem to affect those people who are exposed to extremes of weather, such as skiers, sailors or outdoor workers or those with fair and sensitive skin.

Veinwave is performed in my clinic as a walk-in/walk-out procedure and works by delivering a small pulse of high frequency electrical current to the veins which makes then collapse and disappear.

Veinwave is a safe, effective, quick treatment ideal for men and woman who would like treatment of cosmetic facial veins.

Please feel free to contact me if you would like to consult me about facial veins or if you would like any further information about Veinwave.
