My negative experience with Veingogh was similar to a few others, only the treatment was administered by a doctor, a vein specialist. I was treated for small broken capillaries under the eyes and around the mouth. Really quite minimal issues and the doctor said my concerns could easily be resolved. Without my consent the doctor treated eyelids and areas above the eyes. I didn't interrupt the treatment because I trusted his judgement. I was left with black eyes and severe swelling for a week. It looked like I had been in a boxing ring and the treatment was EXTREMELY PAINFUL. I believe veingogh created more broken capillaries. I now have hyper pigmentation and pitted marked where the needle was inserted around my eyes and nose. It has been two months and there are definite changes in the skin texture. I used to only wear make for special occasions to cover the redness. Now I don't leave the house without concealer and I pray these marks will go away on their own. I don't even care about the veins anymore!! DONT DO VEINGOGH.
To anyone considering this treatment.... veins and broken capillaries are easy to cover up with concealer. Pitting and bumps are not so easy to hide!! I wish someone would have warned me this was possible. I NEVER EVER would have done it and learned some make-up tricks instead.

I went to a highly recommended dermatologist yesterday to look at the scars, marks, and veins left after veingogh (similar to veinwave), ohmic thermalosis treatment . She said that I indeed have hyperpigmentation and hypotrophic scars under the eyes and nose, and that the treatment created vascular matting. So, everywhere the needle was inserted more capillaries popped up. The hypotrophic (pitted) scars are so close to my eyes she does not recommend treatment for them with a fractional laser because it could cause further damage.
In 6 months to a year she said she could treat the broken capillaries caused by veingogh under eyes with a V beam laser. Until then, I'm bleaching and drinking tons of water and eating a healthy diet to rebuild collagen.

Hello, VeinGogh did the same thing to me. It made my veins darker and created matting around them. Did you ever find a solution?

VeinGogh is an excellent procedure when performed by those with experience. It is unfortunate this practitioner was inexperienced.
Always do your homework online, search reviews and ask the practitioner how many procedures they have performed.

Mine was done by a certified dermatologist, who specialises in dermatology and medical aesthetics.....She does this procedure every day.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I hope you find support here in the community.
