What can be done about these blue veins showing through my skin? (Photo)

It’s important to distinguish between varicose veins and spider veins when choosing between laser therapy, sclerotherapy, and vein surgery. With two board certified vein specialists, our center uses a combination of visual examination, functional flow measurements, ultrasound, transillumination, and infrared light to map out vein networks prior to therapy. Lasers can be used to treat deep varicose vein insufficiency, vein perforators, and varicose veins. Sclerotherapy is ideal for spider veins and reticular veins. Whereas surgery is reserved for severely incompetent varicose vein segments.

Thank you for your question. Based on your photo I recommend Sclerotherapy treatment which involves an injection of a chemical that will cause your vein to contract and become scarred internally. The vein will disappear from your body after some time. Generally, it takes about 8-10 weeks for the vein to disappear. Please make sure you seek treatment from a board-certified dermatologist.

These are very common after breast augmentation. They usually go down over the course of the year. If they persist for more than a year they’re likely to stay. We treat these in our office with foam sclerotherapy. One or two treatments are typically sufficient. Make sure you see someone who treats this area regularly.

Those veins are called reticular veins. They are quite common after breast implants. They can be treated with sclerotherapy. We have good experience with those veins.

The posted picture shows blue reticular veins which are very common and these can extend to the upper chest area.  Although there is always the possibility of an underlying problem leading to the vein formation, most likely the reasons for the vein formation are genetics and the breast implants.  Sclerotherapy should work well for you to treat these veins.  See a vein specialist.
