Ulthera Caused Spider Veins and Broken Capillaries?

January 15, 2013
Asked By:LidiaC in New York, NY

I just did an Ultherapy treatment around my eyes, the doctor warned me it could bust capillaries and then she would treat them with Vbeam. However, I only notice spider veins broken on my eyelids, where she did not directly treat! Why has this happened!? Can v BEAM remove these broken capillaries or spider veins on my eyelids?
