Broken Capillaries
Radiance Restored: Addressing Broken Capillaries at Rejuva Medispa & Laser
Understanding Broken Capillaries: Restoring Skin Clarity
Broken capillaries, also known as telangiectasia or spider veins, are tiny, dilated blood vessels that appear close to the skin's surface, creating a web-like or branching pattern. While generally harmless, these visible veins can affect the skin's appearance, especially on the face. Understanding the causes and effective treatments for broken capillaries is essential for achieving a clearer and more even complexion.
Causes of Broken Capillaries:
Ageing: As skin ages, the natural collagen and elastin support structures weaken, contributing to the appearance of broken capillaries.
Sun Exposure: Prolonged exposure to UV rays can damage the skin and lead to the dilation of blood vessels.
Genetics: Some individuals may have a genetic predisposition to developing broken capillaries.
Rosacea: A chronic skin condition characterized by facial redness and visible blood vessels.
Temperature Extremes: Frequent exposure to extreme temperatures, such as hot baths or saunas, can contribute to the development of broken capillaries.
Common Areas Affected
Face: Particularly common on the nose, cheeks, and around the eyes.
Legs: Spider veins may also appear on the legs, often associated with issues like varicose veins.
Contributing Lifestyle Factors
Alcohol Consumption: Excessive alcohol intake can contribute to the dilation of blood vessels.
​
Smoking: Tobacco smoke contains chemicals that can weaken blood vessel walls.
​
Harsh Skincare Products: Aggressive skincare routines may exacerbate the appearance of broken capillaries.
