How Thermocoagulation Works: An Advanced Solution for Thread Vein Removal

Thread veins on the face, commonly known as spider veins, are small, dilated blood vessels that become visible just beneath the skin’s surface. While they are harmless, many individuals seek treatment to restore a clear, even complexion. At Dr Newmans Clinic, we specialise in non-laser thread vein removal techniques, with thermocoagulation - also known as Veinwave or ThermaVein—being one of the most advanced and effective methods available.

What Is Thermocoagulation?

Thermocoagulation is a cutting-edge treatment that uses microwave technology to target and eliminate thread veins. The procedure delivers precise, high-frequency energy through a fine probe, causing the affected vein to collapse and be naturally reabsorbed by the body over time. Unlike laser treatments, thermocoagulation ensures minimal risk of scarring or pigmentation changes, making it an ideal solution for treating spider veins on the face, thread veins on the cheeks, and broken capillaries on the nose.

How Does Thermocoagulation Work?

The process of thermocoagulation follows a simple yet highly effective approach:

  1. Primary Appointment
       
    • A specialist at Dr Newmans Clinic assesses the severity and location of the facial thread veins to determine if thermocoagulation is the most suitable treatment.
  2. Treatment Preparation
       
    • The skin is cleansed, and in some cases, a numbing agent may be applied to ensure patient comfort.
  3.  
  4. Precise Application of Microwave Energy
       
    • A fine probe is placed directly on the affected vein.
    •  
    • The device emits a pulse of microwave energy, causing the vein to heat up and collapse.
    •  
    • The body then naturally breaks down and absorbs the treated vein over time.
  5. Immediate Results & Recovery
       
    • Many patients notice an instant reduction in visible thread veins, with optimal results becoming evident over several weeks.
    •  
    • The procedure is minimally invasive and requires no downtime, allowing patients to resume daily activities immediately.

Benefits of Thermocoagulation for Thread Vein Removal

Thermocoagulation offers numerous advantages over traditional treatments, including:

Non-Laser Treatment –Safe for all skin types, reducing the risk of burns or pigmentation changes.

Precision Targeting –Only affects the unwanted veins, preserving surrounding skin tissue.

Immediate & Long-Lasting Results – Most patients see improvements instantly, with continued fading of veins over time.

No Downtime – Patient scan return to normal activities right after the session.

Minimal Discomfort –Some may experience a mild warming or plucking sensation, but the procedure is generally well tolerated.

Who Can Benefit from Thermocoagulation?

Thermocoagulation is ideal for individuals struggling with:

  • Facial thread veins (broken capillaries on the nose, cheeks, and chin)
  • Spider veins on the face
  • Red veins on the skin caused by sun damage or rosacea
  • Spider veins on the cheeks and around the nose

Post-Treatment Care: Maximising Your Results

To maintain the best results after thermocoagulation, consider the following care tips:

  • Avoid excessive sun exposure and always use high-SPF sunscreen.
  • Follow a gentle skincare routine to prevent irritation.
  • Stay hydrated and maintain a healthy diet to support optimal skin health.
  • Limit alcohol and smoking, as these can contribute to thread vein formation.
