Can Small Veins Under the Eye Be Treated with Electrocoagulation?

blueveins
I have a couple of noticeable veins under my eye and I was wondering with electrocoagulation with a electrolysis machine would be a safe treatment option? I think that it would be safe because you are not injecting the vein you are just coagulating it. Please let me know your thoughts and if there is still the risk of affecting the sinus leading to possible cavernous sinus thrombosis.
