Our clinic offers gentle, precise facial vein treatment that helps you achieve clear, even-toned skin—so you can feel confident without layers of makeup.
What Are Facial Veins?
Facial veins (also called telangiectasia) are small, visible spider veins or broken capillaries that appear on the face.
Common characteristics:
-
Tiny blood vessels near the skin's surface that have become dilated or damaged
-
Appear as red, purple, or blue fine lines or web-like patterns
-
Most common on the nose (especially sides), cheeks, around the eyes, and the chin
-
More delicate than leg spider veins—require specialized, gentle treatment
-
Often associated with rosacea, sun damage, aging, or genetics
These visible veins can create a flushed or uneven appearance that many people find frustrating—especially when makeup doesn't fully cover them.
What Causes Facial Veins?
Facial spider veins and broken capillaries develop for several reasons:
Common causes:
-
Genetics and heredity — Family history of facial veins or rosacea
-
Rosacea — A chronic skin condition causing redness and visible veins
-
Sun damage and UV exposure — Weakens blood vessel walls over time
-
Aging — Natural thinning of skin and weakening of capillaries
-
Hormonal changes — Pregnancy, menopause, or birth control
-
Alcohol consumption — Can dilate blood vessels
-
Extreme temperature changes — Hot or cold weather exposure
-
Trauma or injury — Damage to facial skin
-
Certain medications — Topical steroids or other drugs
Understanding the cause helps Dr. Figueroa recommend the best treatment approach and prevention strategies.
