Thread veins
Removal of Thread Veins
Thread veins, or dermal flares, are very fine dilated veins situated just beneath the surface of the skin. It is essential that patients with dermal flares undergo a venous assessment to make sure that there is no underlying condition causing them.
Also known as spider veins, these are small, thin veins found particularly on the legs. A solution, called a sclerosant, can be injected into these veins so that they are less noticeable. It's an outpatient procedure that does not require an anaesthetic. The sclerosant causes the tiny veins to collapse, without causing any damage to the main supply of blood to the legs or skin. More than one sclerotherapy treatment will be necessary to achieve a satisfactory cosmetic result. Treatment does not prevent new veins appearing.
The best form of treatment for these small veins is microsclerotherapy. Sometimes VPL Photorejuvenation may be advisable in conjunction with, or even instead of microsclerotherapy.
