Telangiectasia / thread veins
These are not broken capillaries but rather permanently dilated capillaries. They have very thin walls which constantly dilate and constrict. As we age, these vessels lose their elasticity and can become permanently dilated.
There are numerous causes including: ageing, hereditary, pregnancy, the rubbing of spectacles, smoking, energetic sports, temperature extremes and harsh weather exposure, hormones and skin fragility.
Spider Naevus
Central dilated blood vessel, with smaller capillaries radiating from it like the legs of a spider. They can be found in isolation or gathered together in clumps on areas such as cheeks.
Milia
These are tiny white hard lumps containing keratin which lie superficially under the surface of the skin and can be easily treated with ACP techniques. Their exact cause is unknown although they are often associated with dry skin which can be acidic.
Skin tags
Also known as Filiform warts or Fibro-Epithelial Polyps. Skin tags are very common and most frequently found on the neck and face. They are often found in areas of friction such as the underarm, under the breasts or around the neck where necklaces may irritate. They often appear with a neck like a mushroom and vary in size from a tiny speck, smaller than a grain of uncooked rice, to the size of a large pea or even larger.
Cherry angioma
Also known as Blood spots or Blood moles, Campbell de Morgan spots and Cherry spots. They are most commonly found on the torso but can occur anywhere on the body. These are bright red vascular blemishes which lie just under the surface of the skin. They are usually dome shaped or slightly raised. Most people aged over 30 have at least one and they are more commonly seen on men more than women.
Warts
There are various types of warts, including plane, common, seborrhoeic and verrucas. All can be easily and successfully treated. Warts can develop individually or in clusters. Seborrhoeic warts become more common with increasing age and can grow up to two inches across.
Dermatosis Papulosa Nigra
This is a common disorder which develops in adolescence on black skin and is identified by smooth, dome shaped, brown to black papules seen mainly on the cheeks, neck and upper chest.

Here you’ll find some of the wonderful things people have said concerning our Milton Keynes Advanced Electrolysis service.
Advanced electrolysis - thread veins
The treatment was quick, with minimal discomfort and the results have been unbelievable, - well worth it!. I no longer need to apply heavy make-up in attempt to disguise the red thread veins on my nose and cheek area.
Advanced electrolysis - milia
I had treatment for some milia around my eyes and mouth area. The treatment was affordable, comfortable and effective. The milia have completely disappeared. Advanced electrolysis really is the answer.
Advanced electrolysis - skin tag
I noticed that I had developed several skin tags under my arm and breast area. They started out quite small but unfortunately seemed to get progressively larger over time. I was feeling more and more conscious of them and they were often irritated by certain items of clothing. In one session the skin tags had been completely removed, I was left with no marks or scars. I am so delighted with the result. Thanks again!
Advanced electrolysis - skin tag
I had 3 small skin tags under my right eye. They bothered me as they were so close to the eye that I kept getting mascara on them which made them look like big black spots. I had a 15 minute session of advanced electrolysis on them at Bodilight. The treatment was a little bit uncomfortable, but tolerable. The skin tags fell off one or two days after the treatment, leaving a small red blemish that disappeared after about a week. I am very impressed with the treatment and would recommend it to anyone that wishes to get rid of these annoying skin tags.
