The facial veins that can be seen on the skin, which we call telangiectasia, have no medical significance and do not need to be treated. They can be cosmetically disturbing. Telangiectasias occur most often on the face, nose, cheeks, or chin and can occur elsewhere in the body. Complaints increase with sun, heat, cold and irritation of the skin.
Telangiectasia and other vascular lesions can be treated with laser. In addition, sclerotherapy is applied for lesions on the leg.
Adana Capillary Treatment
The large vessels located close to the skin surface are called capillaries. Since these veins are close to the surface, they become visible on the skin. The appearance of veins approaching the skin surface may disturb people. Although it is possible to encounter capillaries all over the body, they are often seen on the face and legs. Capillary cracks on the face cause redness as well as a vascular appearance. This situation creates an undesirable, disturbing appearance in men and women. Capillaries in the legs are usually formed due to deformations. Capillaries are more common with people who have occupations that mostly require standing.
At the same time, environmental factors can cause capillary formation. Excessive sun exposure, long-term use of birth control pills, hormone therapy, long-term use of cortisone creams and some internal diseases are the obvious causes of capillary formation. In addition, capillary formation may develop due to aging and genetic factors.
How is Capillary Treatment Performed?
Capillaries can form for many different reasons. Genetic factors, pregnancy, skin aging, sun exposure, sudden weight gain, preferring tight clothes and tight socks, and consuming less fluids are some of the causes of capillary formation. However, the exact cause of capillaries cannot be determined. It is more common in women than men.
Before starting the treatment of capillaries, it is checked whether they have varicose veins. If risk factors for health are not observed, capillary treatment is performed. Generally, sclerotherapy and radiofrequency methods are preferred for treatment. Laser treatment method has also increased its popularity in recent years. It is recommended that you choose the treatment method determined by your doctor according to the patient and the type of capillaries. In the laser treatment method, the feeling of pain is lower than other treatments. If you want a less painful process, we recommend that you consult your doctor. In laser and all other treatment methods, the level of pain to be felt during the procedure is minimized with the help of cooling technique and pain relief creams.
What Should Be Considered in Capillary Treatment?
There are some steps that you should pay attention to before getting capillary treatment. The first of these is to pay attention to the drugs and foods you take before capillary treatment. Using drugs that will expand your veins, taking blood thinners and nutrients will complicate the process. Exposing your veins to excessive heat and causing your veins to expand is also a step you should stay away from before treatment.
At the same time, you need to make sure that your skin is clean before the treatment is performed. You should not apply any cream or moisturizer to your face other than the creams recommended by your doctor. At the same time, make-up and skin pollution can complicate the treatment and cause permanent scars on the skin. In the pre-treatment period, it is very important that you clean your skin with light products that will not tire your skin and make it ready for the treatment.
You should also protect your skin in the post-treatment period. Exposure to the sun, in particular, may cause complications after treatment, and may cause permanent stains and scars. Care should be taken not to be exposed to direct sun rays and to use sunscreen creams in the days after the treatment.
