I had a laser treatment almost 3 weeks ago to remove blue veins from my temples and under my eyes. The treatment seems fairly successful in getting rid of the reticular veins. However, I am still dealing with unwanted side effects. I now have new bags / puffiness under my eyes as well as dilated visible capillaries. I am afraid that the laser has permanently damaged my delicate skin under the eyes. I wasn’t worried at 10 days, but I find it hard to imagine swelling lasting this long.
