The removal of unsightly spider or thread veins
How does the treatment work?
Rosacea Treatment in London
Red veins are permanently dilated small blood vessels called telangiectasias. Small broken veins on the face can be the result of exposure to the sun, part of the aging process, hormones, or simply genetics, and can all contribute to the development of unsightly spider or thread veins. If left untreated, spider veins may become larger, longer and more prominent over time. Ace Aesthetics have the knowledge and expertise to eliminate these, virtually pain free.Harmony xli “AFT Technology for Precise Red Vein Clearance”

Harmony XL AFT Treatment
The skin structures such as capillaries and veins contain red blood cells with haemoglobin that absorb light energy at a specific wavelength. Harmony XL AFT Laser is scientifically and clinically proven methods of delivering light energy to these unwanted targets to reduce their appearance. The haemoglobin absorbs the light energy that gets converted to heat leading to destruction of those unnecessary blood vessels.
The procedure is a relatively quick, 20 minute session. No anaesthesia is required for this safe and effective treatment with no downtime. Most of all, you will be pleased with the long lasting results. The veins are dramatically reduced with just one treatment, however, sometimes a course of treatment is advised.

Tanned and dark skinned people cannot be treated with AFT. Big veins cannot be treated.
The treatment sensation may feel like the flick of an elastic band on the skin.
