Frequently Asked Questions
About Facial Vein Removal

What Are Facial Veins?
Facial veins are visible veins that can appear on the face, often being among the initial noticeable signs of ageing. These veins can affect millions of individuals and can be attributed to various factors such as genetics, sun damage, the natural ageing process, and even certain lifestyle factors like hormone therapy and the use of oral contraceptives. While the exact cause of facial veins is not fully understood, these contributing factors can lead to the dilation and prominence of blood vessels on the face, resulting in the appearance of red or blue lines that can be a cosmetic concern for many people.
How Does Facial Vein Removal Work?
Facial vein removal is a procedure designed to diminish or eliminate the appearance of unwanted veins through the use of the Candela Gentlemax Pro laser, a cutting-edge technology that employs a targeted approach to treat visible veins on the face. During the procedure, bursts of laser energy emitted by the device are precisely directed towards the targeted veins. These bursts of energy are absorbed by the blood vessels, leading to coagulation and contraction of the veins.

What makes the Candela Gentlemax Pro particularly effective is its ability to selectively target the problem veins while sparing the surrounding skin and tissues from damage. This precision minimises discomfort and allows for a quicker recovery time compared to traditional methods. Over time, the treated veins break down and are naturally reabsorbed by the body, resulting in their gradual disappearance from the skin’s surface.

What Are The Benefits of Facial Vein Removal?
If you’re fed up with broken capillaries and blood vessels on your face, there is a solution. Victorian Cosmetic Dermal Clinics facial vein removal treatment is a safe and effective way to clear your complexion.

The benefits of facial vein removal include: 

  • Elimination of visible veins and imperfections;
  • Reduced rosacea and redness;
  • Improved skin texture;
  • Increased collagen production;
  • Precise targeting;
  • Quick and non-invasive treatment; and
  • Minimal downtime.
Is Facial Vein Removal Painful?
The good news is that the facial vein removal procedure typically causes minimal discomfort. Patients might experience a sensation similar to a mild pinprick, and the cold air built into the handpiece of the Candela GentleMax Pro ensures you will only feel a cooling sensation.
Will Facial Vein Removal Cause Scarring?
Facial vein removal utilising advanced technologies like the Candela Gentlemax Pro laser are designed to minimise the risk of scarring. The laser targets the veins without harming the surrounding skin, reducing the likelihood of scarring or significant damage. Following proper aftercare instructions can further help prevent complications.
How Many Facial Vein Removal Sessions Do I Need?
The number of sessions you will need varies depending on factors like the severity of the veins and the treatment method. While some individuals might notice significant improvement after just one session, others may require additional sessions to effectively target and treat all the problematic veins. As a general rule, multiple sessions are recommended to achieve optimal results.

During your initial consultation, our qualified skin therapists will carefully evaluate your specific condition and create a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs. They will consider the size, type, and location of the veins, as well as your skin type and overall health.

Are The Results Immediate?
The results of facial vein removal are not typically immediate. While some individuals might notice a reduction in the appearance of veins immediately after the treatment due to the coagulation of the targeted veins, the full and optimal results are usually achieved gradually over time.

After the treatment session, it’s common for the treated veins to become less prominent, and some redness or mild swelling might be present. However, these initial changes are often temporary. The body’s natural healing processes then work to gradually break down and reabsorb the treated veins, causing them to fade from view. For some patients, this can take a few weeks to occur.

How Long Do Results Last?
Results are long-lasting, as the treated veins are naturally absorbed by the body. However, it’s important to note that new veins might develop over time due to ageing or other factors. In such cases, maintenance sessions are recommended to increase the longevity of your results.
Is There Any Downtime After Facial Vein Removal?
There is no downtime after facial vein removal and patients can often resume their regular activities immediately after treatment.
How Long Does A Facial Vein Removal Session Take?
The duration of a facial vein removal session using the Candela Gentlemax Pro laser can vary based on factors such as the size and number of veins being treated and your skin type. However, a typical session using this advanced technology usually ranges from around 15 to 30 minutes.

During your consultation, our skin therapists will be able to give you a more accurate estimate of how long your specific treatment sessions are likely to take, taking into account your individual needs and the extent of the veins being treated.

What Precautions Should I Take Before & After Treatment?
Before treatment, it is advisable to avoid excessive sun exposure or tanning. You should also inform our skin therapists about any medical conditions or medications.

After treatment, protect your skin from the sun, follow post-treatment care instructions, and stay hydrated. Avoid rubbing, scratching or picking at your skin. Treatment care instructions can help optimise your results and minimise any discomfort.

Are There Any Side Effects or Risks?
While facial vein removal is generally safe and well tolerated, some temporary side effects might occur. These can include redness, mild swelling, and slight discomfort, similar to a mild sunburn. Rest assured that these symptoms are temporary and will gradually subside within a few days to a week after the procedure.

In rare cases, bruising or blistering might occur, but they usually resolve on their own. Risks are minimised when the procedure is performed by our experienced and highly-trained therapists following proper protocols.
