Why Choose Our Laser Leg Vein Removal

Lynton Lumina YAG laser

Our long-pulsed YAG laser, the Lynton Lumina, heats the blood in the vein until it closes, without targeting the surrounding skin.

Suitable for all skin types

All skin types can be treated, from the fairest to the darkest; the skin just mustn’t be tanned.

Doctor-led care

We check your skin type and medical history first, following protocols set by our doctors.

How it works

Spider veins and thread veins on the legs are very common. They show as fine red, blue or purple lines, most often on the thighs, calves and ankles, and they tend to become more noticeable over time. If you live in Burry Port and would like yours to be less visible, laser treatment at our Llanelli clinic can help.

Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is in the centre of Llanelli. We are a doctor-led clinic registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we have been treating clients since 2016.

Every client starts with a free consultation. There’s no pressure and no sales pitch, just an honest view of what treatment can and can’t do for you.

What Are Leg Veins?

Spider veins and thread veins are tiny blood vessels that show through the skin on the legs, often in red, blue or purple clusters. Burry Port clients often want to feel confident in shorts and swimwear on the coast path and beach.

Family history, hormones, pregnancy, standing jobs and age can all play a part. These veins are harmless, and laser is designed for them specifically; larger, raised varicose veins need assessing by a GP or vascular specialist instead.

Cowell St Skin & Hair Clinic is a doctor-led clinic in Llanelli, registered with Healthcare Inspectorate Wales, and we treat leg veins from £30 a session. We’ll tell you at your consultation which type of vein you have.

How Laser Leg Vein Removal Works

Treatment uses the Lynton Lumina long-pulsed YAG laser, used within the NHS and approved in the NHS Supply Chain. The laser light is absorbed by the haemoglobin in the vein, which heats up and closes.

The closed vein is reabsorbed by the body over the following weeks, so it fades from view. Throughout the session, a cryo-cooler chills the skin to keep you comfortable, with no injections needed.

What Results to Expect

Leg veins fade gradually over the weeks after each session. Most people need a course of treatments, typically up to six sessions, to see a significant improvement.

Results vary with the size and depth of the veins, and treatment does not stop new veins forming in the future. We will give you an honest view of what to expect at your consultation.

We can treat all skin types. Tanned skin cannot be treated, and that includes fake tan.

What You Can Expect from Treatment

Quick treatment: about half an hour each time
Cooled for comfort: cold air chills the skin during treatment
Typical course: up to six sessions
Mild, short-lived redness: settling within days
No time off: just avoid heat for 24 to 48 hours
Honest assessment: we’ll confirm your veins are suitable first

Your Free Consultation

Your first visit is a proper assessment. We look at your veins, check your skin type and ask about your medical history and any medication.

You’ll leave knowing whether treatment is suitable, how many sessions we recommend and the cost, with no obligation.

To secure your appointment we take a £30 deposit. It comes off the price of your treatment, or we refund it in full if you decide not to go ahead. Please read our cancellation policy before you book.

Before and After Your Treatment

Before you come in

Come with the area clean: no make-up, perfume, deodorant, or body or face creams.
No real or fake tan on the area. Sunbeds and prolonged sun exposure are not allowed in the month before treatment, and any tan must fade completely before we can treat.
Avoid retinol creams on the area for 14 days before treatment.
Use SPF 50 on the area between treatments, or keep it covered.
Tell us about any change to your medical history, and any medication you take, including anything bought from a chemist or herbalist.
Arrive in good time, so we can cool the skin first if needed.
We may charge for an appointment that cannot go ahead because of a tan or fake tan.

After each session

The area may look red and raised and may tingle. This is normal and settles over the next few days.
If the area still feels hot at home, use a cold flannel or cool pack. Do not put ice or ice packs directly on the skin.
Occasionally there is swelling or bruising, which can last from one or two days up to one or two weeks. Swelling is usually worst one to two days after treatment. For the face, sleep with your head raised on pillows.
A bruise may appear on the treated area. It can last up to 15 days, and as it fades it may leave a brown mark that usually goes within one to three months.
Larger vessels can look darker at first. This can take up to four weeks to clear as the body reabsorbs them.
Make-up can be applied after several hours if the skin is not sore or broken. Remove it gently, without rubbing.
For 24 to 48 hours, avoid hot showers, baths, saunas, steam rooms, strenuous exercise and anything that raises your body temperature.
Wash as normal, but take cool showers and pat the skin dry. Apply aloe vera gel 3 times a day for up to a week. If it feels uncomfortable, treat it as you would sunburn.
For a month after treatment, keep the area covered or use SPF 50. Sun on treated skin can cause sunburn and dark patches.
If the skin blisters, contact us straight away. Keep the area clean and dry, do not pick it, and do not use lotions or creams on open skin.
