Vascular Laser Thread Vein Removal | The KS Clinic Experts

At The KS Clinic, we believe everyone deserves smooth, even-toned skin — free from the visible webs of red or blue thread veins that can detract from your confidence. That’s why we're proud to offer our specialised vascular laser treatment for thread vein removal, featuring the cutting-edge Cynosure Elite Plus system.

What Are Thread Veins?

Thread veins — also known as spider veins — are tiny broken blood vessels, visible just beneath the surface of the skin. They often appear as fine red or blue lines, either in clusters or more extensively across the legs, arms, or body. As we age and our skin becomes thinner, these become more noticeable. At The KS Clinic we treat them safely and effectively.

How The Treatment Works

1. Assessment & Preparation – We begin by cleansing and prepping the area, mapping out the treatment zone with precision (using a white pencil grid) to ensure full coverage and safety.

2. Laser Application – Using the Cynosure Elite Plus, the operator selects the ideal settings for your skin and vein type. The laser emits a beam of light that’s absorbed by the pigmented or blood-filled vessels. That light converts into heat energy, which damages the vessel wall. The body then naturally clears away the treated vessels via the lymphatic system.

3. Aftercare – Immediately after, soothing aloe vera gel is applied and a high-quality SPF is used to protect the skin from UV exposure and minimise any redness.

   
   

Why Choose the Cynosure Elite Plus?

The Cynosure Elite Plus system used at The KS Clinic offers dual-wavelength functionality, making it suitable for a wide variety of skin types and vessel sizes. It allows us to target unwanted blood vessels while preserving surrounding normal skin—giving you clearer, smoother results with less risk.

What to Expect: Sessions, Results & Timeline

• Most clients will need 2-3 sessions, each lasting about 15 to 30 minutes, spaced approximately every 6 weeks depending on individual responses.

• After each treatment you may notice a gradual reduction of visible thread veins as your body absorbs the treated vessels.

• Because the treatment is non-invasive (no surgery, no needles), you can return to normal activities soon after, with the right aftercare.

• Results vary depending on your skin type, the severity of the thread veins, lifestyle factors, and following after-care advice.

  
  

Ideal Candidates & Considerations

This treatment is ideal for anyone bothered by fine red/blue veins showing through the skin. However:

• It's important to have a consultation to confirm suitability (skin type, current medications, medical history).

• Avoid excessive sun exposure before and after treatment.

• Follow all aftercare instructions (including SPF) to optimise healing and results.

• While the procedure is low-risk when performed by experienced practitioners, realistic expectations are key: some residual veins may remain, and maintenance sessions may be needed over time.
