A facial thread vein (also known as a broken capillary or telangiectasia) is a tiny, visible blood vessel that sits just beneath the surface of the skin. They often appear as fine red, blue, or purple lines and are most common around the nose, cheeks, and chin. These veins become visible when the small blood vessels dilate or weaken, which can be caused by factors such as sun exposure, genetics, age, rosacea, temperature changes, or skin trauma. While completely harmless, they can make the skin look flushed or uneven —
A skin tag (also known as an acrochordon) A skin tag is a small, soft, harmless growth that sits on the surface of the skin, often found on areas where the skin naturally folds such as the neck, eyelids, underarms, and under the breasts. They are typically flesh-coloured or slightly darker and are made up of collagen fibres and blood vessels. Skin tags are completely benign, but many clients choose to have them removed for comfort or cosmetic reasons. At my clinic, removal is quick, safe, and effective, leaving the skin smoother and more comfortable.
A spider naevus is a small, visible vascular lesion that appears as a bright red central dot with delicate capillaries radiating outward, giving it a spider-like appearance. Commonly found on the face, neck, and chest, spider naevi are usually harmless and often develop due to sun exposure, hormonal changes, pregnancy, or simply genetics. While they pose no medical concern, many clients choose to have them treated for aesthetic reasons. At my clinic, these can be safely and effectively reduced or removed using advanced, targeted treatments to leave the skin clearer and more even-toned.
Milia are small, firm, white or pearl-like bumps that sit just beneath the surface of the skin. They form when dead skin cells become trapped, creating tiny cysts that are most commonly seen around the eyes, cheeks, and forehead. Milia are completely harmless but can be stubborn and difficult to remove at home. Professional extraction is the safest and most effective way to clear them, leaving the skin smoother and more refined. At my clinic, milia removal is gentle, precise, and designed to protect the surrounding skin.
A blood spot (also known as a cherry angioma) is a small, bright red bump on the skin caused by an overgrowth of tiny blood vessels. These harmless lesions can appear anywhere on the body and often become more common with age or genetics. Although they are completely benign, many clients choose to remove them for cosmetic reasons or if they catch on clothing or jewellery. At my clinic, blood spots can be safely and effectively treated using advanced methods, leaving the skin clearer and more even in appearance.
