Blue vein under the eye. Any suggestions? (photos)

Question

I recently noticed this blue vein under my right eye. I have a bit smaller one under the other eye too. Are there any safe procedures to remove this vein or make it less visible? Thank you

William Groff, DO · Answer

Yes, there are laser treatments available that are very safe and effective for removing veins around the delicate eye area. I perform many of these treatments at my practice with great results. I recommend visiting a board-certified dermatologist who offers a variety of lasers and has experience treating facial veins for a consultation to come up with a treatment plan.

Thank you for the picture.These veins under your eye are small enough to be successfully obliterated with needle RF or long pulse dye laser.BestDr. Karamanoukian

John Landi, MD · Answer

There are several options for treating under eye veins including fine needle RF, VeinGogh, VeinWave and laser.  All can work and their use depends on the treating physician.  See a vein specialist.

Richard Ort, MD · Answer

I would recommend that you see a very experienced laser physician, which is usually a dermatologist, to discuss possible laser treatment.  Special techniques are necessary for safe laser treatment around the eyes.
