Facial Veins Treatment
Everything About
Facial Veins
Spider veins on the face create a problem because it is difficult to hide them. Often it is impossible to see them as veins, but they cast a slight pink or reddish spot on a face. Sometimes pigmentation, sunspot, or red acne are also signs of spider veins. They can be solitary or multiple. Spider veins often take place on facial parts such as the forehead, cheeks, eyelids, nose, and chin. And sometimes even on the neck and chest.
Visible facial veins are also known as Telangiectasias and Spider Angiomas. Spider Angiomas on the face are nothing but dilated blood vessels. With growing age, the blood vessels lose their elastic fibres, which leads to improper pumping or pooling of blood in veins. This situation further leads to be swelling of veins that are easily visible through the skin’s surface.
Facial spider veins or Telangiectasias are commonly seen in fair-skinned ladies, mostly between 40 and 50. Several reasons cause facial spider veins, such as excessive sun exposure, ageing, pregnancy, steroid use, hormonal changes, genetics and trauma, rosacea, and liver disease.
Prevention from Facial Veins
People with PCS generally report a chronic dull pain that worsens in various situations, including:
- Avoid extreme heat : Very high temperatures from saunas, spas, or hot water may dilate the blood vessels, increasing the chances of spider veins.
- Limit sun exposure: Wearing a hat, sunscreen, and long layers of clothing help reduce the chances of spider veins caused by sun damage.
- Wear protection: Various protective gears may help avoid spider veins caused by injury. Examples include facemasks and helmets for cycling, baseball, or motorcycle riding.
- Avoid vasodilators: Vasodilators can cause vessels to fill with blood and may make spider veins more noticeable. Common vasodilators include spicy foods, caffeine, and alcohol.
Treatment
of Facial Veins
- Sclerotherapy uses injections of sclerosing agents to help spider veins disappear in a short period.
- Laser Therapy: It uses intense laser exposure to destroy spider veins. However, it can also damage the skin, which is sensitive during recovery.
- Intense Pulled Light Therapy: IPL therapy uses special lights that penetrate the deeper layers of skin without damaging the initial layers. This treatment needs less recovery time and less damage to the skin.
