Diathermy is a treatment for red veins and broken capillaries, thread veins, and spider veins.
At The Skin Nurse Clinic, we find a combination of IPL and Diathermy is the most effective method for removing red veins from the face.
Especially around the sides of the nose. It can also be practised to remove skin tags.
An excellent needle probe is used to transmit a current of electricity. This shuts down the blood vessel by heating up the blood to the point that the blood vessel wall collapses. Thus the appearance of the broken vessel is removed from the face.
Every case is individual 1 to 4 treatments are usually required. It is advised to keep up maintenance treatments each year. It is not often a once-off treatment but can be sufficient for mildly broken veins.
A full complimentary consultation with our experienced Dermatology Nurse Specialist will decide which peel is the right peel for you. Our Dermatology Nurse Specialist will take into account how much downtime if any you are prepared to give this treatment and precisely what results you are looking for taking into account your past medical history.
