Facial thread veins, also known as broken capillaries or spider veins, are small, dilated blood vessels that appear just below the skin’s surface. They often create a red or blue web-like pattern and are most commonly found on the cheeks, nose, and chin. While these veins are typically harmless, they can impact your self-confidence due to their visibility.
During your consultation, we examine the affected area, review your skin type and vein characteristics, and discuss the most suitable treatment plan. A free online assessment can also help us determine whether an in-clinic visit is necessary.
Treatment is performed using precision laser or IPL therapy, targeting the visible veins while protecting surrounding skin. Procedures are quick, minimally invasive, and designed to reduce discomfort and downtime.
After treatment, you’ll receive personalised aftercare guidance. Most patients notice gradual fading of thread veins within a few weeks, and follow-up appointments are arranged if needed to ensure optimal results and maintain healthy, clear skin.
Treatment Options
Our doctors provide tailored solutions for all types of facial thread veins. The most suitable treatment depends on the size, severity, and location of the veins, and in some cases a combination of therapies is recommended for optimal results.
Laser treatments use focused light energy to target and eliminate facial thread veins without the need for incisions or downtime.
IPL utilises broad-spectrum light to heat and destroy the targeted veins, gradually fading them away.
Creams or serums may help improve skin tone and reduce inflammation of facial veins over time, but they are not a standalone treatment.

Facial thread veins are small, dilated blood vessels visible near the skin’s surface. Common causes include sun exposure, ageing, genetics, hormonal changes, and lifestyle factors such as smoking or alcohol consumption. Skin trauma or repeated facial pressure can also contribute.
Thread veins are usually harmless and not a medical threat. They are primarily a cosmetic concern, though persistent redness or sudden changes may require professional assessment.
They appear as fine red, purple, or blue lines on the cheeks, nose, or chin. Some people notice mild itching or irritation, but most experience no discomfort beyond appearance.
Facial thread veins rarely fade without intervention. Lifestyle measures such as sun protection and avoiding skin trauma can prevent worsening, but professional treatment is usually needed to remove them.
Most patients report minimal discomfort. Our clinicians use advanced techniques designed to reduce pain while ensuring precise, effective results.
The number of treatments depends on the size, severity, and number of veins. Many patients achieve noticeable results within 1–3 sessions, spaced a few weeks apart.
Protecting your skin from sun exposure, avoiding excessive heat, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk of developing new veins. Early treatment of minor veins can also prevent them from spreading or worsening.
Temporary redness, mild swelling, or slight bruising can occur, but these usually resolve within a few days. Our clinicians provide personalised aftercare instructions to support healing and minimise any side effects.
