Spider Veins Treatment Nottingham City Centre

Sclerotheraphy is a treatment considered to be the gold standard for removing unsightly thread veins on the legs. Treatment consists of tiny injections into the little red veins which leads to inflammation and causes the veins to constrict and collapse. It is a fast procedure that takes between 15 mins and an hour, depending of the severity of the veins, and usually requires more than one session. After the treatment the veins can look a little worse but in the course of the next few weeks you will notice the result. With this treatment it is possible to stop thread veins from spreading  but we can't stop them appearing in areas that have not been treated. It is therefore recommended that, following initial treatment, a session is carried out once a year in areas where they are beginning to appear.

Thermo-coagulation is based on a high frequency wave producing a thermal lesion with protection of the skin. The exclusive method is effective and relatively painless. Spider veins are cosmetically unsightly. They are too fine to be treated like varicose veins, but the thermo-coagulation of veinwave is a complete solution and totally safe. Equipped with a magnifying loop, the practitioner introduces a fine needle over the vein and in most cases it disappears instantaneously. Veinwave can be applied to any kind of skin complexion because it doesn’t cause loss of pigmentation.

Sclerotherapy is the injection of a sclerosing liquid, through an extremely fine needle, causing microscopic damage to the cells lining the vein. The internal walls of the vein become “sticky” and close up. This prevents further flow of blood through the vessels. The body’s own immune system then clears away the blood vessels.
