This advanced treatment reduces redness and restores a clearer, more even complexion, leaving your skin looking healthier and more radiant.


What Are Broken Capillaries?

Broken capillaries, also known as thread veins, appear as fine red, purple or blue lines on the surface of the skin. They are caused when tiny blood vessels become enlarged or damaged, often from sun exposure, ageing, hormonal changes or lifestyle factors.


How Electrolysis Treatment Works

  • Precise Application – A fine, sterile needle is placed over the capillary.
  • Targeted Current – A small electrical current is delivered, heating and coagulating the blood within the vessel.
  • Clearer Results – The broken capillary closes and fades, leaving the skin clearer and more even.
