What Are Treatments for Broken Capillaries on the Nose?
I have some broken capillaries on my nose and want to know what is best to get rid of them? From a distance, it looks like small sunburn or brusing on the nose but close up, I can see it's little thread veins.
Facial Capillary Treatment
Thank you for your question. “Broken capillaries”, or telangiectasias, are commonly seen on the face, especially on the cheeks and around the nose, and treatment for these vessels is commonly sought out. In our San Francisco Bay Area practice our treatment of choice for telangectasias is with our Nd:Yag laser. The procedure is simple with minimal to no down time and the results can be impressive. Several treatments may be required and there is always the chance the vessels will return, however they can be safely re-treated. Most patients experience a noticeable reduction in appearance of telangiectasias after 1-3 treatments. I hope this helps.
