Understanding Facial Veins & Hemangiomas
Facial veins and hemangiomas are common vascular conditions that can cause visible redness, blue or purple veins, or small raised lesions on the skin. Though benign, they can be cosmetically distressing, especially when they appear on the nose, cheeks, chin, or around the eyes.
At Vanguard Aesthetics, our team provides safe, precise treatments to reduce or eliminate these vascular concerns. Using advanced light and laser technology, we can target broken capillaries and vascular lesions without damaging the surrounding skin, restoring a more even, radiant complexion.

Typesof Facial Veins
Spider Veins (telangiectasias)
Fine, red or purple vessels that appear just beneath the surface of the skin, often on the nose, cheeks, or chin. They develop when small blood vessels become dilated or weakened due to sun exposure, genetics, or rosacea.
Broken Capillaries
Tiny blood vessels that rupture and remain visible on the skin’s surface, giving the complexion a flushed or blotchy look. These are common in individuals with sensitive, sun-damaged, or fair skin.
Hemangiomas
Bright red or deep purple raised spots caused by clusters of small blood vessels. They can be present at birth or develop later in life and may darken or thicken over time.
Cherry Angiomas
Small, round, bright red bumps that form due to an overgrowth of capillaries. While completely harmless, they are frequently treated for cosmetic reasons.
