RED VEIN & SKIN TAG CLINIC

Thread veins / red veins (Telangiectasia)
This superficial blood condition appears as visible small thin veins that lie just beneath the surface of the skin. They occur on the face and body and can build up over many years or appear due to sudden damage to the skin. Blood spots presented as tiny red marks on the skin are also common and can increase with age.

Spider veins (Spider Naevus) are tiny capillaries radiating from a red mark which look like spiders legs hence the name!

Treatment instantly coagulates the trapped blood as gentle heat works though the vein. The vein is cauterised at both ends preventing it refilling, making this treatment highly successful.

Red veins can be hereditary however they can also appear due to neglect of the skin such as use of sunbeds/sunbathing, extremes of temperature, smoking. They may also be caused by trauma to the skin, excess weight and pregnancy.

Each treatment takes aproximately 15 minutes and generally several treaments are requried to improve the area. Intervals of 2 weeks between treatments are required to allow the skin to rest between treatments.

Although you way initially assume total clearance of red veins is the desired outcome, many clients find that once the more visible veins are removed they are much happier with the appearance of their skin and often don't require total clearance. After each treatment the area will be red for the rest of the day. For the next few days some clients do experience tiny crusts (dot size) however this is so slight and hardly noticable.

In the case of a larger area needing treatment, Intense Pulsed Light treatment can be applied. Both treatments can be combined with IPL treating the large area initially and then finishing of with precision work on individual veins

IPL is an advanced non-evasive treatment which can eliminate these unsightly blemishes without injections or surgery.
The energy from the intense pulse light coagulates the blood in the vein, causing it to becomes redundant and eventually disappears. The duration and number of treatments varies depending on the area to be covered and type of lesions requiring treatment. Therefore a treatment plan is developed with your red vein specialist.

Cost of treatment is from £35 per 15 minutes and this will be discussed at your initial consultation along with treatment options and expected results.

SKIN TAG REMOVAL

A skin tag is a common skin growth that looks like a small piece of hanging skin. Skin tags are often described as bits of skin- or flesh-colored tissue that projects from the surrounding skin from a small, narrow stalk. They typically occur on the neck, underarms, eyelids, and under the breasts (especially where underwire bras rub directly beneath the breasts). Although skin tags may vary somewhat in appearance, they are usually smooth or slightly wrinkled and irregular, flesh-colored or slightly more brown, and hang from the skin by a small stalk. Skin Tags may be as small as a flattened pinpoint-sized bump around the neck.

Although tags may occur in anyone, more often they arise in adulthood. They are much more common in middle age and they tend to increase in prevalence up to age 60

Skin Tags

Skin tags are removed by passing a probe into them which has heat passing through it. This will seal off the blood supply and prevent the tag developing. Often the tag is completely removed with the first treatment. Someof the smaller ones will be completely removed with the first treatment. Larger tags may require 2 - 3 treaments.

After the treatment a small scab will form in the site of the tag. This is part of the normal healing process and will gradually disappear over the following few days. In some cases this can take up to 2 weeks.

Cost of treatment and removal of Skin Tags is £35 for the first 3 and then £5 per additional tag per session
