Understanding visible facial vessels
Telangiectasia
& Broken Capillaries
What are Broken Capillaries?
Broken capillaries, also known as telangiectasia, are small, permanently dilated blood vessels visible just beneath the surface of the skin. They commonly develop around the nose, cheeks and chin but may occur anywhere on the face.
How can broken capillaries present?
/ Fine red vessels
/ Diffuse redness
/ Clusters of visible capillaries
What influences broken capillaries?
/ Genetics
/ Rosacea
/ Sun exposure
/ Repeated flushing
/ Ageing
/ Trauma
My approach
Visible vessels respond extremely well to laser treatment, however it's equally important to understand why they developed.
For some clients they occur simply through genetics or sun exposure. For others they're part of a broader inflammatory condition such as rosacea.
Addressing both the visible vessels and the underlying skin health provides the most comprehensive outcome because we once we treat them - we want to strengthen the vascular network to reduce the reoccurrence.
