Thread Vein & Redness Treatment At A Glance
Everything you need to know before your consultation
What Is Thread Vein & Redness Treatment?
Thread veins (or spider veins) are tiny, damaged blood vessels that sit just beneath the skin, often showing as red, web-like lines across the nose, cheeks and chin. Wider surface redness can also come from sun damage, genetics or rosacea-prone skin.
Why Choose This Treatment?
You may be a good fit for this facial redness treatment if you want:
Targeted Results
It addresses facial thread veins, broken capillaries, spider angiomas and diffuse redness.
A Solution That Fits You
Ideal if you are tired of concealing redness and want a reliable, clinic-grade fix.
Proven Technology
Advanced IPL Lumecca light-based treatment.
Easy Recovery
A non-surgical treatment that lets you get back to your day straightaway.
A Genuine Result
Soothing creams can calm skin for a while, but they cannot shrink or repair broken vessels. Our clinical IPL actively targets and clears the damaged vein for a lasting cosmetic result.
How Does the Procedure Work?
Straightforward, comfortable and quick — here is what to expect
Our clinical team first checks your skin type and the depth of your vascular concerns to confirm Lumecca IPL is the safest, most effective option for you. We then cleanse the area and apply a cooling gel to keep you comfortable. As the practitioner guides the handpiece over your skin, you will feel a bright flash of light that feels like a light elastic sensation. Afterwards, we apply a soothing, high-factor SPF. Mild redness and warmth are normal and usually settle within an hour.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most patients find it very comfortable. During treatment, you feel a bright flash of light with a light, elastic sensation, and the cooling we use keeps you at ease throughout.
There is virtually no idle time. Slight reddening and heating up are perfectly normal and should subside within an hour. The skin reaction, too, should subside within a few hours. You need to stay away from sunlight immediately after since your skin will be more sensitive to light.
IPL is a brilliant option for facial thread veins, spider angiomas and surface redness. During your consultation, our clinical team checks your skin type to make sure the treatment is safe and effective for you.
The vessels we treat fade as the skin settles, and most people get the best result from a short course of sessions. Because sun exposure and genetics can bring new thread veins over time, occasional top-up sessions help you maintain your results.
When performed by our qualified team, risks are very low. Most patients have no side effects; any temporary redness or mild warmth is normal and settles on its own.
