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

GummymummyNov 10, 2015
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!

Thank you for your question.The veins in the back of the thigh are extensions of the small saphenous system, the so called vein of Giacommini. It is very easily treated in expert hands.Seek an ABVLM Certified vein specialist.Best Dr Karamanoukian
