Broken blood vessels are those pesky red little dots or lines that usually show up on the face especially around the nose. They can also be on the neck and chest and give an “aged look” in both areas. Ectasia can also be part of Rosacea and cause diffuse redness over the area.

So what can be done?

Creams or pills cannot destroy these little blood vessels.  The only effective treatments for these lesions is the process of using lasers (called electrodessication). Laser treatment with the Vbeam Laser is effective, safe and requires very little down-time. Using lasers to treat broken blood vessels can make a huge difference in the overall texture, coloration and appearance of the skin.

The first step to treat broken blood vessels is a careful examination and evaluation of what will be best for your skin.
