Thread Vein Removal

Thread vein removal surgery is a cosmetic, ellective procedure to remove unsightful veins that give skin a uneven tone or colour. Commonly affected areas are cheeks, nose, legs and ankles. There are various treatments to remove or diminish the appearance of thread veins.

Causes of Thread Vein

The exact causing of thread veins is unknown although research suggests that alcohol, smoking and eating spicy food increases the appearance of veins. Hormonal changes also have an effect and the natural ageing process weakens the skin and increases transparancy.
