Visible thread veins, whether on the face, legs or other areas, can cause cosmetic concern. If you have noticed new or worsening veins, or veins causing discomfort, it is worth arranging a professional assessment.
You can begin with a free online evaluation by uploading photos and completing a short form so our clinical team can assess your suitability. At the clinic, a specialist will examine the affected area and discuss treatment options such as laser therapy, sclerotherapy or IPL, based on the size, location and severity of the veins. Treatment can often begin the same day using minimally invasive techniques designed to reduce downtime and achieve effective results.
After your procedure, you will receive tailored aftercare instructions and any necessary review appointments. Most patients notice gradual fading of treated veins within a few weeks. Our specialists also provide advice on lifestyle measures and skin protection to help maintain long-term results.
Treatment Options
Your thread veins may need a combination of treatments depending on their size and location. Our specialists will assess your veins and recommend the most suitable option, whether laser therapy for smaller veins or sclerotherapy and radiofrequency for larger or more complex veins.
This procedure involves injecting a specialised solution into the veins, causing them to collapse and fade over time.
Laser treatments use focused light energy to target and eliminate thread veins with minimal discomfort and recovery time.
This method employs radiofrequency energy to close off problematic veins, making them disappear gradually.
IPL uses light pulses to heat and destroy the targeted veins, gradually fading them.
Wearing compression stockings can help manage symptoms and prevent the worsening of thread veins.
Maintaining a healthy weight, staying active, and using sunscreen can prevent new thread veins from developing.
Your leg thread veins might need a mix of treatments based on their size and your skin type. When you meet with our experts, they’ll check your condition and help you choose the right treatment. Smaller thread veins can be treated with laser therapy, but if your veins are larger or if you have darker skin, sclerotherapy could be a better option because lasers may not work as well for you.
Thread veins can be effectively treated through various methods, from minimally invasive procedures to lifestyle changes. If you’re dealing with thread veins, consult with one of our experts to discuss your treatment options and find the best solution for you.

The number of treatments varies depending on the extent and size of your thread veins. Many patients see significant improvement after just one session, while others may benefit from 2-3 treatments for optimal results.
Thread vein removal for cosmetic purposes is typically not covered by insurance. However, if the veins cause significant discomfort or medical issues, insurance may provide coverage. We recommend checking with your insurance provider.
While the treated veins will not return, new thread veins may develop over time due to genetics, lifestyle factors, or aging. Following prevention guidelines can help minimise this risk.
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during thread vein removal treatments. The level of sensation varies depending on the treatment method used. Any discomfort is brief and well-tolerated by the vast majority of our patients.
If you experience persistent pain after your treatment, please feel free to contact our receptionist for advice. If it is outside of our normal working hours, you can also call NHS Cambridge for additional support and guidance.
