There are multiple options for treating facial spider veins, so the most important thing is to go to an experienced Vein Specialist, who can evaluate you and determine what will work best in your particular case. Remember that this is a vein or vascular issue, and not a skin problem. Facial veins such as these are very common, and are best treated very easily by superficial or topical laser. Treatment generally requires several sessions, although sometimes we are fortunate, and a single session will do. However, not just any laser will be effective, so you should be seen at an experienced office, who will use the right energy type for veins and not just treat your skin. There are several lasers which work extremely well on the face, including the 940 diode, the 1064 Nd-Yag, as well as ohmic thermolysis (VeinGogh or Veinwave). IPL or BBL light treatments are used by some, but these are not the best, or "gold standard" options. Injection sclerotherapy can also be done, although it is rarely necessary on the face. As a final option, microphlebectomy can be performed, where the vein is actually removed through a tiny, needlestick incision under local anesthesia, but this is more invasive than the prior options. I recommend seeing a vein specialist who can offer several treatment options and can determine which is best for you.

In my hands, the Veingogh Device works very well on small veins of the face. I have not had very much luck treating leg veins with this device. When you push on the vein and then release it does it disappear for a brief second? If it does it probably needs to be re-treated. If the Veingogh...
Yes, it is exactly what VG is for. You should not have any problem treating those veins with Vein Gogh (VG) You can try on 1-2 veins , the result should be immediately visible I have treated at least 1500 noses with VG, successfully in 90% of the time, 10% need more than 1 treatment. The veins...
