Facial
Spider
Veins &
Broken
Capillaries
Unsightly
spider
veins and
red
blotches
on the
face
affect
millions
of people.
While they
may not be
medical
emergencies,
many of
our
patients
would like
to be rid
of these
unattractive
and
sometimes
embarrassing
distractions
to their
natural
beauty.
Fortunately,
our
advanced
technologies
enable us
to safely,
easily and
effectively
treat
these
broken
capillaries
or facial
spider
veins.
There are
many
reasons
that
people
develop
blood
vessels on
their
face. The
most
common
reason for
broken
capillaries
on the
face is
genetic
susceptibility.
However,
there are
environmental
factors
that
contribute
to
development
of facial
capillaries.
These
include
factors
that makes
one “blush
and flush”
including
sun
exposure,
spicy
foods, hot
beverages,
alcohol
and
extremes
of
weather,
such as
cold, hot,
or windy
weather.
These are
the same
exacerbating
factors
for
another
common
skin
condition
named
rosacea,
which not
only
results in
development
of blood
vessels
and
general
redness on
the face
but can
occasionally
result in
formation
of adult
acne.
Effective
Laser
Treatments
Today's
new light
and laser
technology
delivers
precise
dosages of
energy to
each vein,
with a
minimal
risk to
the skin.
During
these
treatments,
light
energy is
delivered
to the
targeted
vein. The
energy is
then
absorbed
by the
blood
vessels.
The
heat/energy
absorption
causes a
clogging
of the
blood
vessel.
The
clogged
vessel is
then
slowly
absorbed
by the
body.
Lasers are
the most
effective
treatment
of facial
spider
veins.
The most
effective
laser for
treatment
of rosacea
and broken
capillaries
is the
pulse dye
laser. The
V-Beam
laser is
the most
advanced
pulse dye
laser
available.
Usually
multiple
treatments
are
necessary
for
improvement
of broken
capillaries
on the
face. This
laser is
extremely
safe and
can be
used
without
numbing
cream as
it is
equipped
with a
cooling
spray.
Broken
capillaries
can be
improved
and
eradicated
anywhere
on the
face
including
cheeks,
nose, and
the chin.
The V-Beam
laser is
designed
so that
the energy
of the
laser gets
selectively
absorbed
by the
broken
capillaries
resulting
in their
eradication.
Dr.
Rokhsar,
has been a
national
speaker
and
teacher on
the use of
this laser
for facial
blood
vessels
and
redness
and has
trained
many
physicians
on the use
of this
laser at
various
medical
meetings
and
workshops.
