Thread Veins and Rosacea
Thread Veins Laser Treatment
At The Harley Laser Clinic, we provide effective treatment for thread veins. These can also be known as spider veins, and can be seen quite easily as they sit on the surface of the skin. They can occur more frequently in females and are commonly found around the cheeks and nose; they have been known to appear during pregnancy as well.
They have also been known to be caused by poor circulation, wearing heeled shoes frequently, also sitting and standing for long periods of time can trigger this condition, along with the hereditary factor.
How do you treat thread veins?
The ND: YAG Laser is used at The Harley Laser Clinic in London to treat effectively thread veins. We are proud to use this state-of-the-art laser technology as it is renowned for providing effective treatment with the least discomfort to our clients who wish to treat their thread veins effectively.
It works by emitting light into the affected area, where the thread veins are positioned. It is this light, which is then absorbed by red colour in the thread veins, which then breaks it down, so it can then be reabsorbed into the body. The softly minimises the thread veins and their appearance is reduced.

Effective Treatment of Rosacea
Treatment of Rosacea is effectively carried out using the latest laser technology At The Harley Street Clinic we use the ND: YAG laser for the procedure. Blood vessels withn the body will absorb the energy from the laser, this is what reduces the appearance and visiual affects of Rosacea. The laser will set-off receptors in the skin that produce collagen, helping the time it takes to heal and the overall effectiveness of the treatment.
In order to get the very best results, we recommend that you have several treatments over a period of time. All of the treatments at The Harley Street Clinic are carefully controlled, monitored and overseen by a specialist team which consists of the Laser protection advisor and a laser protection supervisor.
