Karen is an advanced trained electrologist and has obtained the advanced diploma in diathermy.
Advanced diathermy is the safest and the most effective way of treating superfical blood conditions and surface skin lesions.
Telangiectasia or facial veins is a superficial blood condition that appears as visible veins that lie just beneath the surface of the skin. They occur on the face and body and can build up over many years or appear due to sudden damage. Treatment by advanced cauterising instantly coagulates or mops up the trapped blood as the heat works through the vein. The vein is cauterised at both ends preventing it from refilling, making this treatment highly successful. There will be no scar or bruising as there can be with some other treatments.
Spider naevus are superfical dilated blood vessels commonly found in clusters on the cheeks and chest. Several small dilated blood capillaries come from the body of the naevus like spider legs hence the name. Direct heat from diathermy will coagulate the trapped blood and it will instantly disappear.
Red blood spots are commonly found on the trunk or torso, front and back. As they are pockets of blood under the surface of the skin, they are ideally treated with diathermy with instant and permanent results.
