Veins Above my Eyes?

March 15, 2013
Asked By:AnmAng in San Francisco

I'm 16 years old and am extremely insecure about the purple veins above my eyes/on my eyelids. I understand that everybody has them, but mine are extremely noticeable, more noticeable than the average person. They are worse in person than in the picture. Is there anyway I can get it removed or make them less noticeable? And is there a name for this?
