I have lots of red capillaries on my cheeks and the sides of my nose,but Im planning to have a face lift soon. Should I have my veins treated before or after?
If you have visible broken capillaries or ‘telangiectasia’, a face lift or any trauma to the skin may aggravate them and make them worse. Ask your surgeon if he could use a hyfercator to zap some of the mat the time of the face lift. After you are healed, you could have the remaining veins treated with either a hyfercator or several types of lasers. If you have thin, fair skin, and are prone to them,chances are you will get more down the line, but they are pretty simple to get rid of. Ask your Dermatologist for advice about how to care for your skin to prevent more from popping up.
