Restore Clearer, Smoother Skin with Advanced Vein Treatments

Visible veins—such as thread veins, spider veins, or broken capillaries—can appear on the face and body due to ageing, genetics, sun exposure, hormonal changes, or lifestyle factors. While generally harmless, these tiny red, blue, or purple veins can be cosmetically bothersome and affect confidence.

At The De Peyer Clinic, we offer safe, clinically proven solutions for unwanted veins using two trusted methods: Sterex Advanced Electrolysis for facial veins and Fibrovein Sclerotherapy for leg veins.

As a trusted vein removal clinic Southampton patients choose, we tailor each session to your vein type and skin. Our thread vein removal Southampton treatments and spider vein treatment Hampshire appointments are designed to reduce visible veins gradually, with most clients noticing clearer skin over a course of sessions.

1. Sterex Advanced Electrolysis

Ideal for Facial Thread Veins

Sterex is a precise method for treating fine facial veins using a tiny probe that delivers a short burst of heat (thermolysis) to cauterise and collapse the vessel. The body then naturally reabsorbs the treated vein.

Benefits

• Quick and minimally invasive
• Immediate reduction in visible redness
• Suitable for small facial veins and broken capillaries
• Minimal downtime

Best For

• Nose and cheek thread veins
• Broken capillaries on the face
• Small red blood spots (cherry angiomas)

2. Fibrovein Sclerotherapy

Gold Standard for Leg Veins

Fibrovein is a sclerosing agent injected directly into the visible vein. It causes the vein walls to collapse and seal shut, after which the body gradually reabsorbs the treated vein over several weeks.

Benefits

• Effective on larger or deeper thread veins
• Minimal discomfort with fine-needle technique
• No surgery or general anaesthetic required
• Excellent long-term results with minimal recurrence

Best For

• Thread veins on the legs and thighs
• Spider veins and reticular veins
• Clients not suitable for laser or electrolysis
