Thread veins, also known as spider veins or telangiectasias, are small, thin blood vessels visible just beneath the skin’s surface. They appear as red, blue, or purple lines, often forming web-like patterns. Thread veins are generally harmless but can cause cosmetic concerns for some individuals.
Thread veins present an issue that most people would rather have removed.
Covering them up is an easy solution in winter but during the warmer months, for many people they can be a cause of anxiety and low self-esteem.
Using the cutting-edge technology, here at The Lase Treatment based in Harley Street, we are able to remove thread veins safely and quickly. Our non-invasive procedures offer permanent results and can be used on the face as well as the body. The treatments used in-clinic for the permanent removal of thread veins and the treatments have been designed to to treat both deep set spider and thread veins, as well as those closer to the surface of the skin.
Our Skincare Professionals combine specialised clinical in-clinic treatments with skincare products to effectively treat thread veins.
Key Characteristics of Thread Veins
1) Appearance:
- Fine, thread-like veins visible on the skin.
- Can form clusters resembling a spider’s web or a tree branch.
2) Common Locations:

3) Symptoms:
- Usually painless, though some may experience mild itching, burning, or discomfort, particularly in the legs.
Causes of Thread Veins
Thread veins occur when the walls of tiny blood vessels weaken or become damaged, causing the vessels to dilate and become more visible. Contributing factors include:
Genetics:
- Family history of thread veins or varicose veins increases risk.
Age:
- As skin ages, it becomes thinner, making veins more noticeable.
- Blood vessels lose elasticity over time.
Hormonal Changes:
- Pregnancy, menopause, or hormonal therapies can trigger the development of thread veins.
- Hormonal shifts increase blood flow and pressure in the veins.
Sun Damage:
- Prolonged UV exposure damages the skin and underlying blood vessels, leading to visible thread veins, especially on the face.
Lifestyle Factors:
- Prolonged standing or sitting can increase pressure in leg veins.
- Lack of movement or sedentary habits reduces blood circulation.
Trauma or Injury:
- Direct injury to the skin or veins can result in visible thread veins.
Underlying Health Conditions:
- Conditions like rosacea or varicose veins can contribute to thread vein formation.
Environmental and External Factors:
- Extreme temperatures, alcohol consumption, and certain medications can also contribute to the development of thread veins.
