How can I remove a bulging vein under my eye? (Photo)

May 9, 2014
Asked By:agespot39 in Los Angeles, CA

About six weeks ago I developed a small spot under my eye. It didn't occur after an injection or trauma that I'm aware of. It is below the surface, feels hard and spherical, like a tiny marble, and if I pull the skin on top to see it better, the color is blue like deoxygenated blood. It hasn't gotten bigger or smaller in the past month. How can I get rid of it? Also, I plan to have fractional laser treatment under my eyes in a few weeks. Should they avoid that spot?
