Prior your treatment, you'll need to visit us for a session where we conduct a patch test using the Lynton Laser. This involves a brief application on a small section of your skin to assess its reaction. During this initial consultation, we'll thoroughly explain the treatment process and advise you on how to prepare your skin before and after the procedure. This crucial step confirms that your skin is suitable for facial vein treatment. By the end of this session, you will be well-informed and ready to achieve the best possible outcomes from your treatment.

Before your facial vein treatment session, we start by sterilising your skin and thoroughly cleansing the treatment area. This preparation ensures that no bacteria or impurities affect the effectiveness of the IPL by altering the light's path. We then use a white pen to precisely mark the areas that need treatment, making it clear for both you and the therapist which areas will be addressed. After marking, we apply a numbing cooling gel to the designated area to keep your skin cool and minimise any discomfort during the procedure.

We utilise the Lynton Laser device for our facial vein treatments, a system recognised for its NHS approval and its extensive use by medical professionals. Known for its precision, it emits controlled pulses of light that specifically target the blood vessels within the facial veins. This targeted approach effectively diminishes the appearance of the veins, significantly reducing their visibility. The result is a smoother, more uniform complexion, giving you a clearer and more even skin appearance.

After your laser treatment, it's common to experience some temporary redness and swelling in the treated area. These reactions are normal and usually subside quickly. We promptly apply soothing aloe vera gel to calm the skin and alleviate any discomfort. Following the aftercare instructions is crucial; these include avoiding direct sunlight and using a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect the treated areas. Additionally, you should avoid hot showers, saunas, and strenuous exercise for the first 24 hours to prevent irritation. By following these guidelines, you help ensure optimal results and maintain the health of your skin post-treatment
