Veins

Veins in the face are small blood vessels that are mainly found in the skin and mucous membranes. They are part of the human circulatory system and serve to transport oxygen and nutrients from the larger blood vessels to the cells.

Veins on the face can be due to various causes. One possible cause is dilation of the small blood vessels in the skin, which can be triggered by external factors such as cold, heat or UV radiation. Certain medications, alcohol or nicotine can also affect blood flow to the skin and cause red veins.

In some cases, red veins on the face may also indicate a condition such as rosacea or venous insufficiency.

Veins can be treated with the help of laser therapy. Special laser devices are used that specifically remove the dilated blood vessels in the skin, thus reducing the visible veins.

Laser therapy is a safe and effective treatment method that is usually well tolerated and does not involve any downtime. However, the treatment may require several sessions to achieve the desired result.

Therefore, it is recommended to always consult a doctor before laser therapy and to inform yourself about the different treatment options and their possible risks and side effects.
