If so, was it successful and were you happy with the results. Anything you'd advise.

I had mine lasered about 20 years ago. They have never returned. It was well worth the money. It does sting a little but not too uncomfortable.

Thank you for replying. They are getting so bad around my nose that I so want to have them removed permanently

I’ve had mine layered and didn’t see a big difference. It hurt a lot too. I’ve also had electrolysis and did see more of a improvement. There’s not many people skilled at doing it now though. I’ve got a couple of small patches which I’d
like to get done, so interested to hear what other peoples experience

Had sclerotherapy on a few on my nose about 10 years ago. Painful, a bit scabby when healing but have never returned.
More recently had 2 sessions of laser therapy for fine red veins all over cheeks. Minimal recovery time, now look great.

I've just had four sessions getting mine done. I have quite a large one under my nose and lots of smaller ones on my nose, chin and cheeks. It worked quite well on my cheeks and the smaller ones around my nose have faded quite a lot. I was disappointed that the main one I went for didn't go. It was thinner and less red for about a week or so after each treatment but is back again just as bad and I've noticed the others are coming back too pretty much everywhere. It doesn't work on everyone and for me it was a bit of a waste of money. I need to learn to accept them now I think. Also it was very painful around the nose area!
