Anyone had it done? Does it work? How long off exercise?

Just that really

Yes - I've had it done several times. Tried three different methods - first was injections, second was laser and third was electrolysis.

They all work, but for me, it's temporary. Either they come back or new ones form.

Not sure I ever had to stop exercising!

I found stopping drinking got rid of mine. I did get some small ones lazered once and as far as I'm aware that was permanent. Cant see them now anyway

BIWI By a process of logic your thread veins reappearance is down to too much exercise and gin!! Grin

I had some two years ago, i though it was from the hot summer and was looking for a way to make them disappear. But i got pregnant and forgot about them and they were gone in few months, not having any at the moment, i do not drink much, only occasionally.

Well, I'm prepared to cut down on the exercise Wink

I had one under my eye and one on side of my nose, got them both lazered.It was about 10 years ago and they have'nt reappeared.

Piscivorus · 01/03/2014 21:47

Proved my point. Too much gin makes you see double! Grin

I had mine done with electrolysis about 8 years ago. They did go, but new ones formed eventually.

I gave up drinking 2 months ago and I can't really see mine anymore, so would def recommend staying off the pop!

Laser treatment on my cheeks worked really well but have got new ones now 3 years later but will have treated again.

I've had them lasered but found as a lovely bonus that using an AHA made them reappear as if by horrible magic
step away from the AHA if this is your trouble ime
