VeinAway Thread Vein Treatment
VeinAway is a precise treatment for reducing the appearance of small, visible thread veins on the face and body.
Using thermocoagulation technology, individual vessels are targeted with controlled high-frequency energy. This closes the treated vessel, allowing it to be gradually absorbed naturally by the body.
VeinAway can be used for isolated veins, small clusters and larger treatment areas, with appointment times based on the number and location of the vessels present.

What Are Thread Veins?
Thread veins, sometimes called spider veins, are small, dilated blood vessels that become visible close to the surface of the skin.
They often appear as fine red, purple or blue lines and commonly develop around the nose, across the cheeks and on the legs or other areas of the body.
Thread veins may be influenced by:
Genetics
Hormonal changes
Sun exposure
Ageing
Pregnancy
Rosacea or facial flushing
Lifestyle and environmental factors
Although thread veins are generally harmless, many people choose treatment because they are concerned about their appearance.
How Does VeinAway Work?
VeinAway uses a fine probe to deliver controlled high-frequency energy at precise points along the visible vessel.
This creates a localised thermal effect that closes the targeted vessel while limiting the effect on the surrounding skin. The body then gradually absorbs the treated vessel over the following weeks.
Because each vessel is treated individually, VeinAway is particularly useful for delicate areas such as the nose and cheeks.
What Areas Can Be Treated?
VeinAway may be suitable for:
Thread veins around the nose
Facial thread veins
Visible vessels across the cheeks
Small clusters of broken capillaries
Superficial thread veins on the body
Suitable thread veins on the legs
VeinAway is intended for small, superficial vessels and does not treat varicose veins. Larger, raised, painful or symptomatic leg veins may require assessment by an appropriate medical specialist.
What to Expect During Treatment
Before treatment, we will examine the vessels and confirm whether VeinAway is suitable.
The treatment itself is normally completed within 10 to 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area and the number of vessels being treated.
You may experience a brief warming, prickling or stinging sensation as the probe moves along the vessel.
Results
Some vessels may appear reduced immediately, while others darken temporarily before fading gradually.
Many clients notice a visible improvement following one treatment. However, some vessels may require further sessions depending on their size, depth, location and individual response.
Treating existing thread veins cannot prevent new vessels from developing in the future.
Aftercare and Recovery
Temporary redness, warmth or slight swelling can occur following treatment. Fine crusting or dryness may also develop as the skin heals.
These effects normally settle gradually over the following days. You will be given clear aftercare instructions, including advice on skincare, sun protection and temporarily avoiding excessive heat or activities that could irritate the treated area.
