Vascular defects on the face: why do they appear and how to deal with them?

One of the most common cosmetic defects that spoil the appearance is the visible dilated blood vessels on the face. In all, they manifest themselves in different ways: in some in the form of a mesh or small veins of red color, while in others they spread across the face in red spots. There are many people who periodically develop pimples on their face, with purulent tops.

All these are manifestations of circulatory disorders. Each of the defects is a symptom of one of the types of skin diseases, which are united by a common name - rosacea. Women are exposed to rosacea more often. This is due to the peculiarity of female hormones (estrogens), which affect vascular tone. Among the male population, lovers of strong alcoholic beverages become the owners of vascular networks and redness on the face.

Couperose does not pose a threat to health and life. But it brings a lot of grief (especially for young women). Some try to mask them with powder or foundation. Others decide to remove it on the face, using witchcraft methods found in fashion magazines or suggested by someone from their acquaintances. But before starting the fight against the signs of rosacea, you should familiarize yourself with the causes of its occurrence... In addition, enlarged capillaries on the face, as a result of this or that disease, must first be treated by a dermatologist, and then proceed to cosmetic procedures.

Diseases that cause vasodilation on the face

Telangiectasia

The most common disease that occurs in young women is telangiectasia. With its development, a network of vessels appears on the face. Often it is inherited if one of the parents (or grandmothers) had one of the skin diseases such as acrodermatitis or rosacea. In this case, a visit to a dermatologist should not be postponed. However, I would like to remind you that these harmless diseases should not be confused with, although many are in a hurry to diagnose themselves or someone else. SLE is characterized by a "butterfly" located on the wings of the nose and cheeks, and, unfortunately, this is not the only symptom of this severe pathology. Systemic lupus erythematosus affects the entire body.

Telangiectasia can be acquired, developing in people of certain professions who have to work outside in any weather. For example, in retail outlets in open markets or at a construction site. Very often, its signs appear on the faces of janitors and geologists, cooks, etc. Changes in temperature contribute to the fact that the vessels on the cheeks dilate. At the same time, in the summer-spring period, the symptoms of the disease disappear, and reappear with the onset of a cold snap. For the treatment of this disease, laser coagulation is used with the use of selective photothermolysis.

Rosacea

Rosacea is one of the most unpleasant types of rosacea. With this disease, inflamed areas of red or pink appear on the skin of the face. Their appearance is caused by the process of expansion of capillary vessels. The symptoms of rosacea occur when there is a strong emotional shock (fear, worries about loved ones, anger). Often, their appearance provokes the intake of alcohol (even in small doses), the use of too spicy food. Rosecea is a frequent companion of steam bath lovers.

The first symptoms of rosacea are similar to the acne scatter in adolescents, which is located on the forehead, cheeks, chin, and even on the nose. But over time (if appropriate treatment is not carried out), small pimples turn into large red nodes or rhinophyma. They can lead to a permanent loss of attractiveness. Rosacea is treated with diode lasers.

Hemangiomas

This disease belongs to benign neoplasms. Most often it is congenital (with abnormal development of the walls of blood vessels) or occurs in early childhood due to vascular damage. Unlike other types of manifestations of rosacea, the surface of the hemangioma is quite dense and slightly protrudes above the skin. The peculiarity of this defect is in the unpredictability of behavior. A hemangioma can remain a small speck for many years, or it can begin to rapidly increase in size.

It is not dangerous in itself. In children, it usually resolves spontaneously by school age. But with a strong growth, it can disrupt the normal development of other vessels and various organs. Hemangioma located on the eyelids requires mandatory treatment. An argon laser is used to remove hemangiomas.

Many parents are concerned about the appearance of redness in the child's eye. Most often this is due to a violation of the integrity of the vessel of the eye during the game. But sometimes the reason for the appearance of redness lies in the fact that due to high intraocular pressure. This often happens to adults as well. In this case, the main thing is to consult an ophthalmologist as soon as possible. He will determine the cause of the incident and prescribe the correct treatment, which will help in the future to avoid problems with the vessels of the eyes.

Flaming nevus

A variety of this disease is a flaming nevus. Its symptoms are the accumulation of blood vessels on the face with abnormal expansion. In this case, a continuous stain is formed (it is called a wine stain). It can appear suddenly and disappear just as quickly. But more often it increases, changing its color. In the recent past, port wine stains were considered an incurable disease. But today they are gone, thanks to the pulsed flash yellow dye laser treatment.

Arachnid hemangioma

Some people occasionally have small red "spiders" on their face. On closer inspection, you can see that these are, as it were, frozen drops of blood, from which small vessels diverge in different directions, like the legs of a spider. After a day or two, the "spider" disappears (spontaneously dissolves). This defect is called arachnid hemangioma (stellate) or arachnid nevus... It occurs as a result of clogging of arterioles. For resorption of the nevus, the intervention of doctors is not required. Most often, the genioma is observed in pregnant women. This is due to impaired blood circulation caused by the development of the fetus. A nevus can appear not only on the cheeks, but also on the wings of the nose.

Causes of rosacea

Based on the symptoms of the disease, it can be concluded that the vessels on the face become noticeable for the following reasons:

1. Due to the impact of temperature changes in winter;
2. Under the influence of sunlight during prolonged stay on the beach or doing garden work;
3. With nervous overload;
4. From the use of spicy and too hot food, alcohol;
5. Under the influence of elevated temperatures in a steam bath or sauna;
6. In case of disruption of the hormonal system while taking medications of the hormonal group;
7. In the presence of hereditary factors.

Hardware methods of getting rid of vascular defects on the face

Today there are many different ways that can quickly and painlessly remove the vessels on the face that spoil the appearance. The most effective today are hardware methods (not to be confused with surgical operations). The essence of these methods lies in the fact that they are all aimed at closing (sealing) a diseased vessel that interferes with normal blood flow in the skin epithelium of the face. The blood begins to move around it. At the same time, a new network of small capillary vessels is formed in the subcutaneous layer, due to which the face looks much fresher and younger. Among modern techniques, laser removal of blood vessels on the face; photocoagulation; electro-optical synergy and a number of others.

Laser coagulation

Such methods of removing dilated blood vessels on the skin of the face, such as cryodestruction (treatment with liquid nitrogen at low temperatures) and electrocoagulation (cauterization with electric current), are gradually becoming a thing of the past. They are being replaced by sparing techniques, thanks to which cosmetic problems recede once and for all. After removal of damaged vessels with modern devices, relapses do not occur, no scars and scars remain on the skin. During the procedure, the patient does not experience discomfort.

Various types of laser systems are used to remove vascular networks and redness on the skin. The most effective are green and yellow laser radiation. It is used when red blood vessels on the face merge into wine stains ( flaming nevus). There are two types of yellow light laser:

• Powered by copper vapor with a wavelength of 578 nm.
• Pulsed Sclero Plus or Vbeam (using dyes and flash lamps), its wavelength is 585 nm.

Widely used to remove wine stains neodymium lasers, for example Palomar (USA), XP Spectro Fotona Technology and others.

The essence of the method using dyes and flash is as follows:

1. Expanded vessels must be heated to a temperature at which they are soldered. This is done with a yellow, pulsed laser. At the same time, the skin around them maintains its normal temperature and is not damaged.
2. Removal is performed by methodical, consistent exposure to a laser beam at specific points. The site is not completely processed, but staggered.
3. After the end of the procedure, the treated areas in the eyes become lighter. After a day, they become covered with a crust that cannot be touched. A network of new capillary vessels is formed under it. The crust will fall off by itself in about a week.
4. Completely normal complexion will be restored three months after the procedure.

Deleting telangiectasia can be done in two ways:

• Non-selective (electrocoagulation)
• Selective (laser coagulation using selective photothermolysis).

The selective method has another name - copper vapor laser coagulation. In Russia, it is most often performed with the Yakhroma Med laser unit on an outpatient basis. The order of the procedure is as follows:

1. Under the influence of a laser beam, pathological blood vessels are heated to a temperature of about 70 ° C. In this case, their walls stick together, causing damage to the vessel. The tissue surrounding the pathological vessel remains intact.
2. If the patient's skin is hypersensitive, it is cooled.
3. The operating mode of the device is set in such a way that after the end of the procedure, there are no traces on the face in the form of a crust formed.

This method is even used to remove foci of inflammation on the wings of the nose. But at the same time, extreme caution must be observed so that the vessels in the nasal cavity do not burst.

Rosacea removed by a long pulse laser. For this, a quadro diode laser from the German company Asklepion is usually used. It generates powerful pulsed radiation with wavelengths up to 810 and 970 nm. This allows you to remove large formations on the face.

Photocoagulation

Laser is an equally common method of removing small vascular networks and other manifestations of telangiectasia in the early stages. All manifestations of rosacea disappear instantly. This occurs as a result of the penetration of the laser beam into the altered area of ​​the vessel with blood accumulation, and heating it. In this case, it sticks together and subsequent dying off. Photocoagulation can be performed with the Eulight laser device, the ELLIPSE I2PL device and others.

Sclerotherapy method

The essence of this method lies in the fact that thanks to a special substance introduced into the affected vessel, it is glued and removed from the main bloodstream. There are several types of this procedure:

1. Microsclerotherapy. It is carried out to remove the vascular network in telangiectasia. The sclerosant is injected with a very thin needle, so the patient does not experience any painful sensations.
2. Sclerotherapy Foam-Form. Allows you to get rid of manifestations Rosacea the introduction of the preparation, whipped into foam, into the vessel.
3. Echosclerosis. In this case, the most accurate introduction of the sclerosant into the vessel occurs due to their laser scanning. Used to remove hemangiomas.

It should be noted that in Russia, only a few clinics have the legal right to carry out hardening of blood vessels on the face. This is due to the high likelihood of complications, including loss of vision. Therefore, in our country, the most accessible and widespread technique is laser coagulation.

Ozone therapy

One of the unsurpassed methods of treating the manifestations of rosacea is ozone therapy. During the procedure, the vessels on the skin of the face are injected with ozone. In hemangiomas, rosacea, ozone is injected through a microneedle into the neoplasm. Biochemical oxidation occurs, leading to the disappearance (destruction) of the vessel with pathology. This is the safest method for removing capillary vessels. This procedure is performed in specialized centers and clinics of ozone therapy. The advantage of this is that simultaneously with the main effect, the skin is filled with oxygen, which gives a rejuvenating effect.

Beautek - therapy

The newest technique called Beautek-therapy on the ITPL series apparatus of the same name is widely used in eliminating all types of rosacea manifestations (telangiectasia, rosacea, etc.). There are six types of them, and each of them is designed to perform a specific cosmetic procedure. The developers of this technique are specialists from Germany.

During the procedure, the areas where the vessels are visible on the face are treated with an electrolyte gel. Acupuncture points are displayed on the computer display, which are affected by a pulsed microcurrent transmitted through the sensor-electrode. The uniqueness of this procedure is that the computer is able to recognize the state of the cells and send them impulses of various strengths. After their exposure, the cell returns to its normal, healthy state.

The device activates the synthesis of elastin and promotes the production of collagen, normalizes the water-salt balance and fat metabolism. The flow of blood and lymph is significantly improved. All these processes go unnoticed by the patient. He is not uncomfortable. But this is one of the most expensive procedures. The minimum cost of one procedure is 3000 rubles.

An important point after the elimination of the manifestations of any kind of rosacea is to prevent relapse, that is, the appearance of new vascular networks. To do this, it is necessary to follow all the recommendations and prescriptions of the doctor in the postoperative period, which are as follows:

• Avoid injury to the treated skin area.
• During the day, do not use alcohol-containing lotions and other cosmetics for skin care, give up makeup.
• Cover your face with the brim of your hat from exposure to sunlight for two weeks. During the same period, it is prohibited to visit the solarium.
• To protect the crust that has appeared at the site of treatment from ultraviolet exposure, treat the area around it with a special cream with sun protection (filter 20). After the crust has disappeared, continue using this cream on the entire treated surface.
• The crust should not be wetted, touched with hands, or tried to tear off, as new capillaries are being formed under it. It will fall off by itself in a few days.

Nutrition

People who have done coagulation need to adhere to some food restrictions. First, you should be away from all the dishes that contribute to the exacerbation of rosacea. These include:

1. Spicy sauces and marinades,
2. Salted and pickled foods;
3. Hot spices and canned food;
4. Chocolate and caffeine-containing foods.

It is necessary to completely abandon alcoholic beverages, including grape wines. But add to your diet, which include:

• For - vitamin K;
• In order to reduce capillary fragility - vitamin P;
• For collagen formation and vascular tone increase - vitamin C.

Drug therapy

Drug therapy complements the hardware method for removing the vascular network on the face... It includes drugs, the action of which is aimed at strengthening the blood vessels on the face and preventing the appearance of new signs of rosacea. These include:

1. Ascorutin is a drug that reduces vascular permeability and reduces capillary fragility, due to the content of vitamins P and C.
2. Alpha Linoleic Acid Omega-3. It increases the elasticity of blood vessels. Thanks to this fatty polyunsaturated amino acid.
3. Alpha-tocopheron or Pinogen. These antioxidants contribute to the elimination of metabolic products from the vessels.
4. The drug Gingo-biloba has a similar effect.

Medicinal ointments for local treatment are prescribed by the attending physician. It is recommended to use a special cosmetic cream for rosacea, delicate light green color. It can be found in pharmacies and beauty centers. The most popular are the following:

• Tiande;
• Uriage Roseliane;
• Alezans Lierak, with seaweed content;
• Sensibio from Bioderma, which is an excellent protection against the adverse effects of temperature extremes;
• Dr. Taffy with calendula.

Many manufacturers offer probes for their products. This allows you to check the effect of the cream, its compatibility with the patient's skin. This is very convenient, since these products are expensive.

It should be noted that all these remedies are good for preventing the development of the disease. If the symptoms do appear, it is better to immediately resort to hardware methods to remove them.

Strengthening blood vessels

The ability to remove blood vessels on the face with a laser does not exempt from the need to strengthen them. After all, only elastic capillaries with good tone contribute to normal blood flow, preventing the appearance of nets and redness on the skin. The following DIY masks help to strengthen the facial blood vessels.

Day mask

Take extracts of blueberries and mimosa flowers, butcher's leaves, galangal roots, cypress seeds and grape seed oil. Mix all components taken in equal parts. Apply to the skin of the face. To enhance the effect, cover with a napkin soaked in hot water. Wash off the mask with warm water. Lubricate the face with a cream appropriate for the skin. Both masks are done every other day for two months.

Small vessels on the skin of the face are well strengthened by a compress from the juice of scalded parsley with boiling water mixed with milk. The gauze soaked in this mixture is applied to the face for 30 minutes. It is recommended to do this compress every two days. Strengthening blood vessels is facilitated by daily rubbing of the face with a leaf of aloe, as well as ingestion of the following infusion:

Take a tablespoon of chokeberry berries, two tablespoons of hawthorn flowers and mistletoe leaves. Brew them in a thermos with a liter of boiling water and insist. Drink half a glass three times a day.

Night mask

It contains extract of sophora, dandelion roots, calendula flowers and essential oil from grape seeds. All components are taken equally. The mask is evenly distributed over the front surface. The excess is removed with a soft cloth.

Traditional medicine

Traditional medicine also offers remedies to help get rid of defects that spoil the appearance.

1. Juice therapy is considered the most effective. Freshly squeezed cabbage juice is used for it. It contains the largest amount of various minerals and vitamins. But it has a slightly bitter, unpleasant taste. Carrot juice will help improve it. We also recommend plum juice, which contains a large amount of vitamin P, which is so necessary for the elasticity of capillaries and other vessels.
2. Some healers recommend smearing the affected areas with apple cider vinegar or fresh tomato juice. But this remedy should be used very carefully, as the acid contained in them can cause burns.
3. Of the medicinal plants for rosacea, it is best to use the flowers of chamomile and calendula (marigold). Water infusions of these plants can be washed. They perfectly care for the skin, relieving any irritation, as they have a soothing effect.

Prevention of vasodilation on the face

A person whose blood vessels periodically burst needs to properly care for the skin at home. For them use is contraindicated :

• Scrubs and peels containing coarse particles that can irritate the skin;
• Alcohol-based lotions and other skin care products;
• Creams, gels and other cosmetics containing menthol or honey (these are strong allergens).

The water for washing should be moderately warm. Hot water, as well as cold water, causes vasodilation. After washing, it is not recommended to wipe your face, you just need to apply a towel to it for a few seconds to remove excess water.

In a beauty salon, it is better to choose a surface peeling with chemical agents. Steaming and manual massage procedures for rosacea are contraindicated. But masks with collagen, thermal massage, phytotherapeutic procedures are very useful.

The basic rule is to be attentive to the condition of your skin. Choose gentle methods and means of caring for her. And then no cauterization is required.

Chinese gymnastics

Chinese medicine is famous for its unique ability to eliminate various ailments without the use of drugs. One of the most effective means for strengthening the blood vessels on the face is medical gymnastics, developed by Chinese healers. It should be performed in the morning, after morning exercises (or after it), repeat each exercise at least 15 times. All exercises are performed in a "sitting" position (on a chair or in Turkish with legs tucked on the floor).

Acupuncture in strengthening blood vessels

Acupuncture or impact on biologically active points is used in the treatment of many diseases. Tibetan medicine offers several simple exercises that work on the active points of the hands to restore normal blood flow. This technique is called Kumnyay

The problem of the appearance of spider veins or, as it is more often called, the mesh, is quite common among the European population, although it does not have serious inflammation or other health problems, it spoils the aesthetic appearance thoroughly.

The vascular network, most often, begins with a small, several obvious vessels, but already, over time, the entire face or its individual parts are affected by a red or burgundy "spider web".

It looks especially ugly on very young girls, because even to hide the resulting shade of the face becomes difficult, tonal and other concealers become powerless. Among many people, there is an opinion that getting rid of such an ailment is unrealistic, because its appearance is provoked by the close location of blood vessels to the upper layer of thin skin.

Experts confidently refute this fact, long arguing that the depth of the vessels and the thinness of the skin have nothing to do with it, most likely, the problem arises on the basis of inflammation of these very vessels.

From the degree of their inflammation and sensitivity of the skin, a thin vascular network appears, from which it is really possible to get rid of, however, not as quickly as we would like.

Before figuring out how to remove the vascular mesh from the face, it is necessary to determine what caused such an unpleasant ailment.

The main cause of rosacea, as doctors call it, is a violation of blood circulation in the skin of the face.

Also, due to its sensitivity, the upper layer of the skin of the face can respond with a negative reaction to cold, sudden changes in temperature and other external influences. Undergoing constant temperature changes, the vessels dilate and then sharply narrow, which can cause a temporary effect of rosacea.

You have probably felt more than once that if you go into a warm room after a frost, your face begins to tingle, tingle, you may even feel a slight burning sensation or itching, all these are the first bells of rosacea.

Young and elastic blood vessels easily return to their normal state, and the skin calms down. But, over the years, the elasticity and youth of the vessels is lost, they expand, but they cannot return to a narrowed state.

Along with this, the redness of the skin remains in its now, rightful place. Of course, this is far from the only reason for the appearance of blood vessels on the face: bad habits and constant stressful situations can also cause the formation of rosacea on the face.

If your skin and blood vessels are predisposed to such an ailment, then the general condition can also be worsened by an excess of ultraviolet radiation, going to a solarium or eating the wrong food.

How to get rid of the vascular network?

The delicate and sensitive skin of the face is more susceptible to the appearance of hated asterisks on its surface, therefore, as soon as you see the first signs of the formation of rosacea, you need to urgently take action, because, like most diseases, it is easier to deal with it at the stage of its inception.

Sensitive skin requires special care, even in a healthy state: home and salon treatments must be tailored to the specific skin type. When caring for such skin, it is important to adhere to several mandatory rules: firstly, it is the constant use of personal hygiene products, cleansing and proper nutrition of the skin is an important point in care.

Secondly, your main task is to strengthen the walls of blood vessels, which, for some of the above reasons, have become weakened and inflamed.

To do this, it is necessary to provide the skin with the correct therapeutic care - then you decide whether to rely on ready-made products that are offered in mass sales, or to use folk recipes and tinctures.

Most importantly, remember that rosacea-affected skin requires a combination of three basic elements that can help it. These include vitamin C, which takes an active part in the formation of collagen, which is necessary for strengthening the capillaries.

How to treat and mask the vascular network?

You can get rid of the hated "mesh" with the help of folk remedies. For example, in the initial stages of the appearance of asterisks, you can try parsley infusion. It must be applied in the form of compresses to the affected areas, for this, pour boiling water over a few sprigs of parsley, then let it brew for about 20 minutes.

Another remedy for normalizing the functioning of capillaries is aloe, which is very often used in cosmetology. To do this, you will have to start several plants, break off 5-6 leaves from them, wrap them in gauze and send them to the refrigerator for 14 days. After the expiration of the period, the plant will be ready for treatment: just break off a piece of the leaf and lubricate your face with it every other day for a month.

In addition to the above means, you can also increase the elasticity of blood vessels with the help of a special massage. Such courses exist in beauty salons, but it can also be done at home.

Don't forget to use healthy face masks - natural ingredients like vegetables and fruits are especially helpful. Alternatively, a mask of gruel of one potato whipped in a blender, a spoonful of honey and a spoonful of warm milk. The finished mask is applied with a cotton pad for 15 minutes.

If folk remedies have not had a visible result, then you can contact a beautician who will offer you several options for getting rid of such a problem.

For example, complex laser or phototherapy, which can get rid of a significant portion of the vascular network, making the face much fresher and younger. The only negative is the possibility of skin defects - small scars, discoloration of skin areas, age spots.

Another method is ozone therapy, which boasts an excellent result: complete elimination of rosacea, the skin remains smooth, without defects. But here there are also disadvantages - the procedure is quite painful.

Often in women, small capillary stars appear on the skin of the face. Many, having found redness on their face associated with the expansion of small vessels, are very worried, but you should not do this, since this problem can be solved.

These manifestations indicate a violation in the body of blood circulation and stagnation of blood in small capillaries. Expansion of blood vessels is inherent in both men and women, only in representatives of the beautiful half of humanity it manifests itself much more strongly, since delicate, light skin contributes to a vivid manifestation of the disease.

As soon as a woman notices dilated blood vessels on her face, she begins to panic and use unverified means, while masking the imperfection on the skin with a thick layer of foundation.

Important: you should not start treating the disease without finding out the reason for which it arose.

There are several reasons why a capillary network appears:

• a sharp change in temperature;
• bad ecology is both polluted air and dusty rooms;

The vascular mesh on the skin of the face is a common phenomenon, but very unaesthetic. It can appear both in a woman "aged" and in a very young girl, because problems with blood vessels and skin are very common these days.

And yet most often the vascular network, called by doctors "", occurs in women over the age of 30. There are enough reasons for this. Let's consider the main ones.

Improper nutrition is one of the possible reasons for the appearance of rosacea

Causes of rosacea

1. Hormonal problems in the body... The vascular network can occur as a consequence of any disease associated with hormonal imbalance.
2. Harmful environmental factors... These include poor ecology, and prolonged exposure to the sun, and the drying effect of wind, and the negative effects of frost on the skin.

Moreover, most often this "beauty" is acquired by the nose, chin and cheeks - the zones most actively exposed to the environment.

Most often, this phenomenon is encountered by people with thin, dry and sensitive skin to various irritating factors. Although owners of oily, denser skin may also notice occasional dilated vessels, especially on the wings of their nose.

Therefore, if your vessels are weak, fragile and sluggish, have lost their elasticity, the vascular network on the face will not keep you waiting long.
