Question

About 6 months ago, suddenly there are two visible green veins on both sides of my face.On the left one is hidden under skin, from temple to eye, the right one is little bulky from my eyebrow to my temple. Any remedy to get rid of these veins? Thank you

Thank you for your question. This should be looked at by your Ophthalmologist and they can determine your best removal option. l I would not recommend lasering this area due to potential risks. I hope this helps.

Thank you for the question! It is rather difficult to fully assess your situation without an in-person exam. Such an exam would be necessary to ensure that your bulging vein is not an artery. If you do have a varicose vein, however, it can be effectively treated with sclerotherapy. This method uses a sclerosing solution that causes the vein to shrink. Usually sclerotherapy takes only 1 to 3 sessions to achieve fading of the undesirable veins.   
An in-person exam with a board-certified plastic surgeon is the best way to assess your needs and obtain expert medical advice. Best of luck!

I also use 3-4 modalities to treat under eye veins, periborbital veins and veins around the eyebrows but the eyebrow veins are easily treated with sclerotherapy. See the link below for videos that show such treatments.

There are several treatment options for these kinds of veins and the recommended treatment is usually dependent on the training and experience of the physician that you see. Certainly certain types of lasers may work but I usually treat these veins with sclerotherapy with polidocanol using a very fine needle. Several treatments may be necessary but it is very safe, painless and the results are cosmetically very acceptable.
