What Are Thread Veins?
Thread veins are small, visible blood vessels that appear close to the surface of the skin. They may look red, purple or blue and are commonly found on the:
- Cheeks
- Nose
- Chin
- Around the mouth
- Legs and ankles
- Thighs
They are usually harmless but can become more noticeable over time and may be difficult to conceal with makeup.
Thread Vein Removal With Lynton Motus AY Nd:YAG Laser
At CJA Aesthetics, we use the Lynton Motus AY laser system with Nd:YAG technology, one of the most advanced laser platforms available for vascular treatments.
The Nd laser emits a precise wavelength of light that is absorbed by the blood within the unwanted vessel. This causes the vessel to heat up and collapse, allowing the body to gradually break it down and remove it naturally over the following weeks.
The Motus AY system is designed to deliver effective treatment while maximising comfort and protecting the surrounding skin. Clents choose laser thread vein removal because it offers:
- Non-surgical treatment
- No needles or injections into the veins
- Minimal downtime
- Precise targeting of unwanted vessels
- Quick treatment sessions
- Suitable for both facial and leg thread veins
- Progressive improvement as the body clears the treated vessels.
What To Expect During Treatment
During your consultation, one of our experienced practitioners will examine your veins and skin type and discuss your medical history to assess whether the veins are suitable for laser treatment. We will explain the expected results and number of sessions required and carry out a laser patch test.
During the procedure, we will thoroughly cleanse the skin and provide you with protective eyewear. The Lynton Motus AY Nd laser is then passed over the treatment area.
You may feel a brief warming or snapping sensation, often described as similar to a small elastic band flick against the skin. Treatment is generally well tolerated and usually takes between 10 and 30 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated.
The number of treatments varies depending on the size and depth of the veins, whether they are facial or leg veins, your skin type, and how your body responds to treatment.
Small facial thread veins may improve significantly after one session, while larger or more extensive veins often require 2-4 treatments spaced several weeks apart.
