Veinwave Treatment
This widely-used technique was developed by leading vascular surgeons; the treatment uses an ultra-fine insulated needle to heat the unwanted vessels in the skin. This then destroys the vein and your body gradually breaks it down and removes it. This technique protects the skin and surrounding tissue whilst allowing your practitioner to accurately apply the treatment to the targeted vessels.
Effective on both the face and the body, this treatment was designed to accompany sclerotherapy to treat smaller veins which sclerotherapy cannot. Veinwave is ideal for treating spider veins, symptoms of rosacea, angioma, telangiectasia and thread veins.
Indications that Veinwave may be right for you:
- You have rosacea and are noticing symptoms such as facial broken veins.
- You have unwanted veins on your face.
- You have unwanted, superficial broken veins on your legs and have had any deeper veins treated previously.
- You have other vein-related concerns such as blood spots (also known as cherry angiomas).
How does my body remove the treated vein after the Veinwave treatment?
Our bodies have scavenger cells called macrophages which breakdown and ingest the treated vessels to safely remove them from your body.
I have background redness and broken facial veins from Rosacea, will Veinwave treat all these symptoms?
In our experience, Veinwave is best to treat individual vessels/veins. There are alternative treatments which can help to reduce general background redness.
I have leg veins; can you treat these with Veinwave?
We can treat the small, broken red veins on your legs. Veinwave is not suitable to treat large, deep (often blue) veins. We strongly suggest that your first action is to have a doppler scan to see if you have any large, deep veins which are ‘feeding’ the smaller veins you can see on the surface of your skin as you sometimes cannot see deep veins; especially if you have a family history of varicose veins. If your scan shows you have varicose veins, you will need to have these treated first otherwise they are likely to continue pumping blood to the small surface vessels.
