Dilated Capillaries, Symptoms and Treatment

I have small red veins around my nose. What treatments are available?

Dilated Capillaries Soultion

Thread veins are dilated capillaries that may have ruptured. They can occur at any age and affect any skin type, not just dry and sensitive skins. They occur most frequently on the cheeks, the bridge and sides of the nose, under the eyes and on the legs.

They are caused by sun damage, alcohol, drinking very hot drinks such as tea or coffee, eating spicy toods, high blood pressure, exposure to harsh weather conditions and steroid products applied to the skin.

You can disguise the veins using a concealer stick or you can go to a beauty salon where they will remove them by using either electrolysis or sclerotherapy.

Dilated Capillaries Treatment

With electrolysis a fine needle, which transmits shortwave electrical current, is used to cauterize the blood vessel, blocking off the flow of blood.

Two or three sessions may be needed, depending on how many veins need to be removed. The skin swells for a couple of days and scabs may form at the point where the needle was inserted.

Sclerotherapy is used to treat more severe broken veins, particularly leg veins (but not varicose veins). A chemical is injected into the vein that makes it collapse and close up, the blood drying out and fading away.
