Who it is for
People who suffer from visible capillaries or veins on the face
Contraindications

Capillaries on the face are usually caused by prolonged exposure to the sun, which weakens the skin and makes it more susceptible to damage. Sunlight also causes new capillaries to form, which appear as red or bluish lines on the skin. Other causes include genetics, age, hormonal changes, excessive alcohol consumption, heat, and other factors that cause blood vessels to dilate. The skin may appear red and irritated, especially on the cheeks, nose, and forehead, and the capillaries become visible.
Treatment for removing capillaries on the face involves several techniques, the most common of which is laser therapy, specifically IPL (intense pulsed light) therapy. This therapy uses light energy to selectively target dilated blood vessels without damaging the surrounding tissue. Laser treatment of capillaries is very precise, and results are usually visible after several treatments. Laser therapy not only removes visible capillaries, but also helps to renew the skin, making it healthier and firmer.
It is important to note that depending on the severity of the problem, the number of treatments will vary, but it is still crucial to follow the dermatologist's instructions to maintain results and avoid factors that can cause capillaries to reappear. Proper post-treatment skin care and sun protection further help maintain healthy-looking skin.
