Can Chemical Peel Cause Spider Veins to Appear?
I already have a few. I would like to know if a facial chemical peel can cause spider veins to appear?
I am already prone to getting them around the nose area. I want to have a chemical peel but I'm quite worried that this may trigger them to appear on my face. My doctor and derm are quite useless when it comes to information. They said they have no idea.

Facial chemical peel and spider veins
Facial chemical peels can cause blood vessels on the face to appear more prominent in all individuals, but particularly in patients with rosacea. If you are looking to get a chemical peel for sun-damaged skin, you may want to consider Intense Pulsed Light/Fotofacial treatments that will address the blood vessels and sun-damaged skin at the same time.
Good luck.
