Varicose veins can be blue, red or flesh-coloured, and can feel sore while appearing unsightly.

At our Marylebone skin clinic, radiofrequency energy is used to provide an even and uniform heat. This contracts collagen in the vein walls, causing them to collapse and seal. Once a leg vein is closed, blood flow is redirected to healthy veins.
It takes around 45 minutes for each leg. If both legs are affected, they would usually be treated separately.
You’ll need to wear compression stockings for 2 weeks after the treatment. You’ll be given a hotline number to use if you have any questions or concerns, as well as a follow-up appointment.
As the procedure is so much less invasive than other treatments, there is less pain and bruising. Most people can get on with normal life after just 48 hours.
Radio-frequency ablation treatment has proven to be a very safe alternative to surgery. We will talk through your suitability and any risks during your consultation.
*Individual results may vary.
Our Marylebone professionals recommend 3 treatments, 4-6 weeks apart. But we’ll talk through this in more detail and develop a micro-needling programme for you during your consultation. Our microneedling prices start from £350.
*Individual results may vary.

Following varicose vein treatment at L’Atelier Aesthetics in Harley Street, some bruising, swelling and tenderness in the treated area is entirely normal and may be present for up to two weeks. Most patients are able to return to light daily activities shortly after their appointment, though we recommend avoiding strenuous exercise and prolonged periods of standing or sitting in the initial recovery period. Results develop gradually as the treated veins are reabsorbed by the body, with full outcomes typically visible at two to three months.
