There are many different ways of treating broken capillaries on the face: Nd:YAG- remains a gold standard for treating abnormal blood vessels IPL- The better newer IPL machines are quite effective in treating blood vessels KTP-can be used to treat blood vessels as well Pulsed-Dye lasers- can create bruising afterwards and has fallen out of favor With these treatments, patients can respond in 1 to several treatments depending on the type of blood vessel.

Answer: Microneedling Unfortunately, microneedling will not help with broken capillaries. I would suggest meeting with a dermatologist who can properly diagnose what is going on and give you the best next steps for moving forward. It could possibly still mean a facial aesthetic procedure.

Answer: Broken Capillaries and Microneedling Good afternoon and thank you for you question! Microneedling will not get rid of broken capillaries on the face due to the fact that microneedling does not recognize any specific chromophores (colors) within the skin. Intense pulsed light (IPL) would be best for red vessels and hyperpigmentation. Microneedling helps with texture, fine lines, acne scarring, and overall skin rejuvenation by creating controlled wounds in the skin which stimulates collagen production. I would suggest consulting with a board-certified plastic surgeon or dermatologist to decide which treatment would be best for you. For more information please feel free to look at our website.
