For over 40 years injection sclerotherapy has proved to be the most effective treatment for unwanted leg veins. These could be the fine threadveins  or even the tortuous varicose veins. Bigger veins repsond well to Foam Sclerotherapy as performed by our expert Consultant Vascular Surgeon Mr Paul Hayes. But finer veins are often trickier because they are often smaller than the injection needle itself and so it is tricky to get the solution into the vein. However, skilled injectors do this very well.

This month, research from Korea compared sclerotherapy with an Nd:YAG laser for treating finer leg threadveins and it showed interesting results. The study looked at 30 women aged 25-65 with threadveins (0.5mm - 1.5mm wide) who didn't have varicose veins or who were pregnant. One leg was treated with the laser, and the other treated with sclerotherapy.

The study concluded that sclerotherapy is the BEST option, with minimal discomfort and few treatments needed...

Many women really want to improve the appearance of their lips but are understandably very scared about looking like a duck, especially after the well publicised disasters effecting Leslie Ash and Pete Burns to name a couple of unfortunate celebrities.

There are generally 3 types of requests for lip fillers at Riverbanks Clinc, voted Best Cosmetic Clinic in the UK since 2009.

Boost Lip Volume Remove smokers lines Define the lip border & reduce lipstick bleed

Younger patients tend to go for a large boost in lip volume, and with these treatments there is generally a bit of swelling which can last for a couple of days, depending on which dermal filler is used. At Riverbanks we only recommend using hyaluronic acid based fillers such as Emervel or Restylane. Each of these brands has a wide range of lip fillers designed to give results you want. We find that there is least...

The very latest in laser hair removal is the Soprano XL SHR system. SHR stands for Super Hair Removal mode and this makes hair removal more comfortable than traditional laser hair removal. For many people the system is completely painless, but if you have darker skin then there may be mild discomfort, a lot less than with typical lasers.



We have had the SHR Soprano XL at Riverbanks for 3 years now and our therapists have a vast amount of experience treating clients from all ethnicities. We treat many Asian patients from Luton especially for excessive facial hair which is often a genetic condition.

Women tend to choose to treat:

1. Facial hair

2. Bikini & Underarms

3. Legs

Men tend to treat:

1. Beard

2. Back & Shoulders

3. Chest & Abdomen
