Thank you for your question. Some areas around the face are not safe to treat due to risk of blindness. I would recommend consulting with an opthamologist or vascular surgeon for safest and best treatment option. I hope this helps.

It is unlikely that the use of a laser to treat facial veins would damage any nerves as they are typically much deeper below the skin's surface and are intimate with the muscles. In addition, nerves tend to be white and do not absorb laser light energy.
