Pulse Dye Laser for Telangiectasias

I don't see a picture that you have posted but telangiectasias can be treated very well with a pulse dye laser - larger reticular veins can be treated on the chest with sclerotherapy. Phlebologists and dermatologists take care of these roblems.

Broken capillaries

The two best ways to treat broken capillaries are with a device called an intense pulsed light source (IPL) or with a laser called the pulsed dye laser. Several treatments are necessary and it should not be done while you are tan.Many dermatologists have either one of these devices.
