What is causing these little veins under my jaw to suddenly appear? (photos)

November 10, 2015
Asked By:Gummymummy in Tampa, FL

I recently noticed them a few months or so ago, and now my ex-husband has even pointed them out (yay) asking me what was wrong with my neck. Can I treat these with Botox? If not, what else would work? Thanks!
