A number of people are troubled by facial veins, consisting typically of enlarged & broken veins on the cheeks and the nose. Many people, especially fair-skinned people in sunny climates (like Southern California & South Florida), will develop areas of the face as they age where superficial veins and capillaries in the skin become enlarged and highly visible. Because of their typically irregular and spidery appearance, these superficial cutaneous vessels are commonly referred to as 'spider veins'.

Facial Spider Veins, or Telangiectasia, are not truly "veins" but rather capillaries or small arteries which have become dilatated. Facial veins are usually seen in people with fair skin, and are often associated with chronic sun exposure, rosacea, overuse of cortisone creams and certain autoimmune diseases.

The cause of spider veins is not completely understood, and appears to be multi-factorial. Contributing factors may be a genetic predisposition, the chronic use of topical steroid agents, and solar damage to the facial skin that gradually builds up over many years.

Fast Facts Facial Spider Veins are not really veins, but rather broken capillaries. Facial Spider Veins often occur as a result of sun exposure on fair skined people. A popular laser treatment for the removal of Facial Spider Veins is the V-Beam Laser. The Coolglide Laser is also used by dermatologists & medspas to treat facial skin blemishes such as spider veins.

The Candela V-beam™ laser is excellent for targeting fine superficial spider veins especially on the face. With the VBeam laser for facial veins, one treatment may be sufficient for clearance but a second visit is recommended for the best results. These treatments occur on an average of every six to twelve weeks.

V-Beam's Ultra-Long pulse duration delivers laser energy to targeted blood vessels over a longer period of time, resulting in a gentle heating effect and uniform spider vein removal. Prior to each laser pulse, V-Beam's Dynamic Cooling Device applies a soothing protective spray to the targeted skin area ensuring the greatest comfort and most effective treatment, with minimal or no bruising of the skin.The spider veins are effectively removed in one or two brief sessions without disturbing the overlying skin. There is no need for recovery time. Most people are able to return to work or resume their usual activities immediately following the treatment.

The V-Beam laser can clear up redness, birthmarks, lesions and spotting on the face & neck and has been known to lessen symptoms of rosacea.
