Thread veins and Freckles problems are among the most regularly requested procedures in aesthetics.

Thread veins, aka ‘Spider Veins’ or by the formal designation of ‘Telangiectasia’, are tiny broken veins which can be seen on the skin, most commonly on the legs and face, often occurring around the nose, cheeks or eyelids.

These undesirable imperfections typically present in shades of red, purple or blue, and often strike clients with pale or fairer skin.

It can be comparatively challenging to pinpoint a precise reason for the development of thread veins. Some studies indicate a genetic predisposition, while others support causes triggered by sun and weather exposure, pregnancy, food, injuries or other similar catalysts.

Pigment problems present as unsightly blemishes that commonly take the form of brown age spots, aka ‘liver spots’ or ‘lentigos’, freckles, Melasma and Café-au-lait spots. Each appears as concentrations of darker skin in varying tones ranging from a distinct dark brown to a light, milky coffee or greyish colour.
