Thread vein treatment at Cosmedics Skin Clinics in London and Bristol offers safe, effective solutions for unsightly veins on the face and body. We provide both advanced laser therapy and sclerotherapy to target and reduce visible veins, improving skin appearance and boosting confidence.
Thread vein removal treats visible red, blue or purple veins on the face and body using targeted medical techniques such as laser therapy or sclerotherapy. Treatment is designed to collapse the affected veins so they gradually fade from view. Our experienced clinicians customise treatment plans to each patient, delivering natural-looking results with minimal downtime. Whether treating facial veins, leg veins, or other areas, Cosmedics combines medical expertise with the latest technologies to restore smooth, clear skin.

The causes of thread veins can vary, but they are most commonly a result of family history, smoking or sun exposure.
For the red spider veins on the face and particularly the nose we use a cautery laser to remove the redness.
For broken veins on the legs, our doctors generally use injectable treatments called sclerotherapy to remove the blueish red marks on the skin.
All thread vein and spider vein removal procedures are done by doctors in a safe medical setting.
Face and nose thread veins or spider veins:
Private Doctor Consultation
Your consultation with a doctor will be completely private and without obligation. It will review your thread veins or spider veins in detail. The doctor will want to understand the cause and nature of your veins before recommending treatment. This includes how long you have had the veins, the possible cause, the spread of them and more.
Our medical advisors would be happy to make an appointment for you:
The consultation fee is payable on booking. We have a 48-hour cancellation policy.
Anyone with unsightly or embarrassing veins or spider veins on their legs or face.
Laser is used mainly for thin, small lines on the face and occasionally on the legs. Sclerotherapy is better for larger bluey-red-purple thread veins on the legs.
Patients often experience some redness afterwards from a few days to 1-2 weeks according to how many veins are needed to be treated and those with fairer skin types typically take a bit longer to recover. Lots of moisturising is advised afterwards and application of sunblock.
The thread veins would be removed and blemish-free skin revealed, giving you the confidence to wear what you want.
Occasionally a few treatment sessions are required to get optimal results normally about a month apart.
The results can last for up to a few years before the natural skin effects mean that sometimes they recur or new veins appear due to the skins natural tendency to form these veins.
Treatment prices start at £300, but this would be confirmed at your consultation with the doctor. It is important to note that sometimes more than one session is required to get long-lasting results and sometimes a maintenance session is required.
No. Only, a mild scratch-like discomfort that is over in seconds (sclerotherapy) or a quick sting (laser).
To ensure long-lasting results it is important to note that clients who have leg sclerotherapy treatment should wear compression class 2 stockings for a minimum of 48-hour post-treatment but can be worn for up to 1-month post-treatment. These are soon to be available to purchase at our Putney clinic or online but can also be purchased at chemists.
In most cases ‘yes’.
No it is classed as a cosmetic treatment and therefore not covered on the NHS.
Occasionally you get some bruising and redness which settles in a week or so. Rarely some light brown marks can be left where the vein once was, but this normally settles.
