Spider veins after chemical peel

After Chemical Peel, I have little spider veins. What can I do? Will my skin go thick again?

Spider veins can occur after chemical peel or surgery or they can be there prior to the treatment, but there is so much else going on that they are not so noticeable.  In either case they are very treatable with a vascular laser.  Depending on their appearance either a KTP, pulsed dye or even IPL can be used.
