This letter is to express how pleased I'm with the treatment I've had done on my legs to remove the broken veins, which have caused me problems for the past few years.

I would not wear shorts or skirts. or even go swimming, but now that is all in the past. This summer it will be different thanks to the Vasculight treatment.I can recommend it to anyone with problems with veins.

'I have a horrible patch on my thigh.' says Rachel. 'I tried sclerotheraphy injections once, but it was too painful. Vasculight sounded a great innovation,'. 'It does make you jump a bit but, after three sessions, the veins have faded and I can wear shorter skirts again without feeling embarrassed.

'I had spider veins at the bottom and the top of one leg. They had bothered me for years but I didn't know there was anything I could do about them. I thought I just had to live with them. '

I had been in contact with the Private Clinic and they told me about this new treatment, so I thought I would give it a go. 'It is uncomfortable, but no like having needles stuck into you. The only way I can describe the feeling is that is like having an elastic band snapped a bit for a second, then it's gone. There is not even any need for anaesthetic.

I've had only one lot of treatment so far, but the results are amazing. After they had done it they told me to have a look, and there was nothing there. 'I had to wear support tights as a precaution for two days and had a bit of bruising, but that will soon go. The main thing is the veins have gone.'

Vasculight is a non-invasive procedure that involves intense pulsed light technology and a laser. It's used to treat unsightly varicose veins and/or spider veins on the legs. Initially I was told that it would feel like the snap of a rubber band, so I was expecting a bit of pain - but I didn't expect it to get worse with each 'shot' of the laser!

It takes a course of around three to four sessions for them to disappear completely. If you're conscious of your veins, you'll be very happy with this treatment.

'I have fine pores, but I've always hated my red veins. I lived in Australia for 25 years and the sun has made me more blotchy and lined. When I was 45 I looked 10 years younger, but in the past five years I've started to age more quickly. I don't like wearing make-up, but I do need a concealer.

After the first treatment, my skin felt firmer and glowed as if I'd been sunbathing. I was warned that in a couple of days my veins would look darker and, sure enough, my skin looked awful. The light seemed to bring out areas I didn't even realise were a problem! But after five days I could see an improvement.

My second treatment inspired me to have my hair cut. I don't need to hide behind it any more and I no longer feel uncomfortable without make-up. I think my skin looks fresher and that's what I wanted to achieve.
