Thread Vein Removal Kent
Say goodbye to unsightly thread veins
Thread Vein Removal in Kent
Thread vein removal is a non-surgical treatment that uses a fine needle tip to deliver a precise pulse of heat that closes the vein. One 60-minute session is often enough.
Thread veins (also called spider veins or telangiectasia) are a common part of the ageing process. The treatment to remove them is similar to our Immaculate Touch non-surgical plasma skin tightening and will give you effective and confidence-boosting results.
A tiny needle tip is inserted just under the skin where it delivers a precise pulse of heat energy right next to the thread vein. This accurate procedure collapses and ‘shuts down’ the unsightly vein instantly and permanently. Your body naturally absorbs the affected tissue – leaving you with clear, unblemished skin.

FAQs
Thread vein removal is a non-surgical procedure that uses a fine probe to deliver controlled thermal energy to superficial blood vessels, causing them to coagulate and become less visible. Thread veins, also known as spider veins or telangiectasia, may develop due to genetics, hormonal changes, sun exposure and ageing.
Initial discolouration and redness of your skin will go away between 1 and 3 days. Tiny scars will dissipate during the next 2 weeks, leaving no noticeable marks. Any scabbing will heal naturally and you should avoid rubbing the affected area. You may experience slight swelling, but this will quickly disappear. Avoid sun exposure (including sunbeds) and extremes of heat and cold.
Most thread vein removal sessions take 60 minutes, and one session is often enough.
One treatment is often sufficient, although larger or more prominent thread veins may require an additional session. This varies from person to person and depends on the extent and severity of the veins being treated. If further treatment is needed, sessions must be spaced 8–10 weeks apart to allow adequate healing and assessment of the results.
During thread vein removal you may feel gentle pinpricks from the treatment pen, but any discomfort is minimal and anaesthetic cream is not required.
No. Although these are sometimes confused, they are not the same and Immaculate Touch only provides removal treatment for thread veins. Varicose veins are blue or flesh-coloured; they may look twisted and can bulge out of the skin. Thread veins are smaller, closer to the skin on the face or legs, and often seen as red or blue coloured with a jagged ‘spider web’ appearance.
The original thread vein will not. However, as they are part of the natural ageing process, you may get them again in the same area of your body in the future.
Thread vein removal starts from £100 at Immaculate Touch. A single treatment is often sufficient for smaller, superficial vessels, although larger or more persistent veins may require additional sessions. Where necessary, treatments are performed at intervals of approximately 8–10 weeks.
