We all get older eventually, it's just a simple fact of life. But how you look as you get older is up to you.​ As we age our skin can start to sag. Wrinkles appear and skin can discolour. These visible signs of ageing are due to loss of tension and elasticity, poor collagen formation, and an inability to bind water. Anti-aging treatments from the Vein and Skin Clinic can help slow the appearance of aging, and even help make you look younger.  

Visible redness to the face is often a sign of broken facial veins beneath the skin’s surface. When these tiny blood vessels and capillaries break beneath the skin, the affects can greatly impact our appearance.

At the Vein and Skin Clinic, we understand that visible facial veins and facial blush can be distressing to the sufferer and we see a range of severities on a weekly basis.

Visible facial veins come in many different forms and affect both men and women. Redness can occur in small patches on the face, or cover a wide area, sometime travelling down the neck and to the chest.

There are a number of factors that cause facial vein conditions. Age, genetics, sun exposure and alcohol consumption are some of the more common reasons. However, anything that has the potential to put pressure on our delicate facial veins can break them and result in visible and sometimes permanent redness.

​The Vein and Skin Clinic offer a treatment for spider veins, rosacea, blush areas and poikiloderma of civatte (tiny red vessels that cause pigmentation changes) with sessions of IPL (Intense Pulse Light). This is a highly effective treatment with a consistently successful track record.
