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 they are 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 a particular 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 mesh of blood 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 they 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 color 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, worry 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 for steam bath lovers.

The first symptoms of rosacea are reminiscent of a teenage acne scattering on the forehead, cheeks, chin, and even nose. But over time (if appropriate treatment is not carried out), small pimples turn into large red nodes or rhinophyma. They can lead to an irreversible 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.

By itself, it is not dangerous. In children, it usually resolves spontaneously by school age. But with a strong growth, it is capable of disrupting 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. Exposure to 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 forms 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 gentle methods, 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, sequential exposure to a laser beam at specific points. The site is not processed entirely, but in a checkerboard pattern.
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 a 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, areas where blood vessels are visible on the face are treated with 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 eliminating 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 make-up.
• 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 must not be wetted, touched with hands, or attempted 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 dishes that exacerbate 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 black chokeberry berries, two tablespoons each 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 her. 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 area 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 used for washing should be lukewarm. 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 moxibustion 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 to strengthen 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.

• Stand up straight. Place your hands in front of your chest, palms with intertwined fingers turned towards your face. It is necessary to separate them by slowly pulling the palms in different directions.
• The situation is the same. But only the little fingers are closed. Repeat the previous movement, trying to separate them.
• Repeat this exercise with each finger.
• Clamp the little finger of one hand between the middle and index fingers. It must be pulled out of there. After 10 repetitions, perform the exercise, squeezing the fingers in turn, first of one and then of the other hand.

Various manifestations of blood vessels on the face in the form of nets, asterisks, veins, red spots or even purulent pimples - all this is the work of impaired blood circulation. The listed defects are united by one name - rosacea, sadness and grief of many women. Again, nature has awarded the fair sex with a disease inherent in it to a greater extent. Although no, men who prefer drunkenness to a normal life or work in harsh conditions can also deserve to wear these stars on their faces.

But, as always, if there is a problem, then there must be a solution. Removal of blood vessels on the face is, of course, possible. And there are plenty of ways. But before declaring war on rosacea, you need to find out with the help of a qualified specialist the reason for which he insidiously appeared.

And, having already got rid of it, decide how to eliminate capillary expansion. Of course, after studying the essence of each removal method and reviews about it.

There are several ailments that are accompanied by the appearance of dilated vessels.

1. Telangiectasia. Stable vasodilation. It can exist independently and be a concomitant disease. It can be acquired and congenital.
2. Rosacea. Or rosacea. Chronic skin disease accompanied by rashes.
3. Hemangioma. It is a benign neoplasm. It differs from other rosacea in its density and protrusion. It can be a simple speck for many years, and then suddenly start growing. But it is possible that it will simply disappear on its own.
4. Flaming nevus. Forms one continuous spot on the face. It happens that it disappears without treatment, but more often it grows and changes color. Another name is wine stains.
5. Spider-like hemangioma. Spiders that suddenly appear on the face, which after two days dissolve without external intervention.

All diseases have external causes that provoke their appearance. Not all diseases are from nerves.

The basis for the emergence of some may be:

• winter temperature drops;
• direct sunlight;
• alcohol, spicy and hot food;
• heat in the bath and sauna;
• hormonal disorders;
• genes;
• and, of course, nerves and severe stress.

The next step is to remove spider veins on the face and other manifestations using hardware cosmetology.

Hardware methods for removing dilated blood vessels

All these methods are able to restore beauty painlessly and without the help of surgery. Their essence is to overlap the wrong vessel. After that, the blood begins to bypass it, forming new capillaries. The result is excellent: not only the disappearance of the defect that spoils life, but also the rejuvenation of the face.

What does cosmetology offer? Laser coagulation, photocoagulation, sclerotherapy, ozone therapy, Beautek therapy, radiofrequency coagulation perfectly remove blood vessels.

More about everything.

Laser coagulation of vessels on the face

Pain and discomfort during procedures are a thing of the past. You can forget about the reappearance of the vascular network. Because modern techniques and devices are gentle and non-aggressive.

Laser systems are of various types. The most effective ones are with yellow and green radiation. They easily deal with a flaming nevus. There are two types of yellow radiation:

• for pulsed lasers (dyes and flashes are used during operation);
• devices operating on copper vapors.

The principle of operation of a pulsed laser is as follows:

• The vessels are heated and sealed. The blood stops flowing into the microchannel, it empties and eventually dissolves, leaving the skin with nothing else but to brighten, prettier and rejuvenate.

Of course, it's not that simple. Before the face regains its former fresh look, it is still necessary to go through some difficulties. First, a crust will appear on the treated area. In no case should you touch it! It will fall off on its own after a week. Under the cover of this unsightly thing, new and healthy, very necessary vessels will form.

Full recovery will occur 3 months after surgery.

This removes the wine stain. And telangiectasia can be eliminated by laser coagulation using photothermolysis. This is the same copper vapor laser. After such a procedure, during which the capillaries are soldered, no crust is formed.

The same method is used to coagulate the vessels of the nose.

Large vascular lesions on the face disappear after treatment with a long pulse device. They are a lifesaver for rosacea.

We are all individual and this is not a secret. Therefore, the reviews are different. Someone is delighted with the result after exposure to a laser, and someone cries after it. But still, 4 points out of five, this method of fighting rosacea gets. Most likely, he deserves it. It's not for nothing that he is so popular.

Photocoagulation

Laser photocoagulation is also one of the popular methods of getting rid of aesthetic suffering. Small vascular networks and other manifestations of early rosacea do not withstand the onslaught of the apparatus and disappear without a trace.

Sclerotherapy

A procedure such as sclerotherapy is practically painless and completely safe operation. A drug is injected into the diseased vessel, which forms a plug in it. It blocks the access of blood to the diseased microchannel, the walls of which eventually stick together and this vessel becomes unnecessary in the circulatory system.

Facial vascular sclerotherapy includes the following types:

1. Microscopic sclerotherapy. Fights the manifestations of telangiectasia.
2. Foam sclerotherapy Foam-Form. Foam is injected into the vessel. The principle of operation is the same - the foam blocks blood flow. This method easily copes with varicose veins. This means that rosacea is not a problem for Foam-Form.
3. Echosclerosis. The sclerosant (drug) is introduced by sighting by scanning. This ensures accurate insertion. Removes hemangiomas.

Sclerotherapy is quite popular, and judging by the reviews this method receives, it is also an effective means of removing blood vessels.

Ozone therapy

The essence of the method: injecting damaged and burst vessels with ozone. Hemangiomas and rosacea receive a portion of ozone by introducing it into the neoplasm. Oxidation occurs and the vessel disappears. The benefits of this method are not only in removing rosacea, but also in rejuvenating by saturating the skin with oxygen.

Reviews of ozone therapy are mostly good. In addition, it was noted that, in addition to being effective in removing vascular networks and asterisks, it also copes well with chronic fatigue and strengthens the immune system.

Beautek therapy

A new technique for combating rosacea. It is performed on the apparatus of the same name.

Problem areas on the face are treated with electrolyte gel. A microcurrent is transmitted through the sensor, which affects the desired points. This device activates collagen production, eliminates blood flow disorders. Everything is completely painless. And it's expensive. One session of Beautek-therapy will cost at least 3 thousand rubles.

Radiofrequency coagulation - rf eraser

Solves vascular problems effectively and instantly. The ThermaVein rf eraser device used in this technique is very effective in dealing with rosacea. This method and apparatus has many advantages over other methods.

Why ThermaVein RF eraser? Pros of RF coagulation

Benefits first:

1. Vessels disappear right before our eyes. You don't have to wait for days or weeks. Everything happens instantly. A second procedure is required at most.
2. Operation with ThermaVein rf eraser is quite easy to transfer. Depends on the pain threshold. Some patients feel nothing at all.
3. There are no residual effects in the form of scars, scars, age spots.
4. There is no recovery period. Or it takes a minimum of time.
5. The ThermaVein rf eraser can be used on all skin types and on all areas of the body.
6. A healthy complexion can be obtained in just 15–20 minutes. This is how much one procedure lasts.

Many women are familiar with the problem of capillaries protruding from the surface of the skin. This cosmetic defect does not affect the health of its owner at all, but significantly reduces the quality of life. The vascular mesh gives the face a reddish tint, which becomes more pronounced with a sharp change in temperature.

Science the problem of the appearance of capillaries on the face is known as rosacea. Fighting a deficiency is not only possible, but absolutely necessary. With regularity and a competent approach, you can completely get rid of capillaries and visible vessels on the face, as well as prevent their appearance in the distant future.

Causes of rosacea

Before wondering how to remove capillaries on the face, you need to understand the causes of this problem. Couperosis is a violation of the elasticity of the walls of blood vessels, as a result of which they do not have time to respond - to narrow and expand when temperatures change and manifest themselves as a reddish mesh that does not pass on the surface of the skin.

The main reason for this phenomenon is a genetic predisposition, and often the vascular network appears on the face of sunbathers and people who abuse alcohol. Also, the appearance of visible vessels can provoke the use of blood thinners or long-term antibiotic treatment.

Couperosis on the face: treatment

There are two main methods of treating rosacea: using a laser and using folk remedies.

Laser treatment of rosacea

Treatment of rosacea with a laser is carried out in clinics or beauty parlors under the supervision of a specialist. The laser, creating a local thermal field, destroys selected vessels without affecting the surrounding tissue. Such an effect does not in any way affect the properties of the walls of other vessels, which means that over time, capillaries can also suddenly appear on the surface of the skin. Laser removal of rosacea is a temporary measure, which means that a rather expensive procedure will have to be carried out regularly.

Reliable folk remedies, massages and proper care of the affected area, which can be used at home, will also help get rid of capillaries on the face. A massage aimed at strengthening the walls of blood vessels and improving the elasticity of the skin can work wonders, but it should be regular.

Treatment of rosacea on the face at home: self-massage

The following highly effective exercises will help increase the ability of blood vessels to respond to changes in temperature. Their effectiveness has been proven by many women who have tested the technique on themselves and by specialists in the field of aesthetic cosmetology:

• If rosacea manifests itself on the cheeks, then it is this area that should be given special attention. A simple exercise can help reduce spider veins. You need to take air in your mouth and try to roll it like a small fruit behind your cheeks.
• Exercises aimed at preventing visual impairment will help get rid of red spots around the eyes. The sharp opening of the eyes after squinting makes the skin elastic and able to resist the appearance of rosacea.
• If capillaries appear near the mouth, then intense lip retraction and attempts to smile in this position will help to reduce them. This simple and fun exercise not only helps to successfully fight rosacea, but also significantly improves your mood.

Such self-massage techniques allow you to prevent the appearance of new asterisks if the capillaries on the face were removed with a laser.

Treatment of rosacea on the face with folk remedies: mask against capillaries

Also, the use of masks made from natural ingredients will help to reduce the manifestation of existing rosacea and prevent the appearance of new lesions. Potatoes and chicken egg white have shown themselves especially well in combating this cosmetic problem. These simple masks help you quickly get rid of capillaries on your face.

• To prepare a potato mask, you need to grate 1 tuber and add a little milk to the gruel. Apply to face and leave to act for 15-20 minutes. The egg mask is known for its ability to improve the elasticity of the skin and subsequently will not allow the vessels to manifest. To prepare it, you need to mix one high-quality fresh chicken protein with a tablespoon of grape juice, of course natural, independently prepared from white grape varieties.

The mask is applied with a cotton pad, left for 15 minutes, and then washed off with clean warm water. After removing any mask, the skin must be toned - wipe it with a mild toner and be sure to apply a suitable moisturizer. Very soon the effect will become visible and the spider veins will turn pale, merging with the skin.

Prevention of rosacea

But, no matter what method of getting rid of it would be chosen, without subsequent prevention of rosacea and competent care, the problem is guaranteed to return, and capillaries will again be visible on the face. After the end of the complex of procedures, the following simple rules must be observed.

Avoid any sudden changes in temperature. Better not to visit saunas, baths. A sharp change in temperature injures the already weak capillaries, and they will remind of themselves again. Do not sunbathe in a solarium and try to limit exposure to active sun. Try to cover your face, a wide-brimmed hat is ideal for this. Do not practice contrasting washes and forget about using ice cubes. The possible benefit due to skin toning is leveled by the manifestation of rosacea.

You need to eat right. Be sure to include fruits and vegetables in your daily diet. It will not hurt to take multivitamins and drugs that strengthen the machines of the blood vessels, for example, ascorutin. You need to try to lead a healthy lifestyle and then the tone of the skin and blood vessels will be restored in a natural way.

It is necessary to completely stop smoking and, of course, the use of all kinds of alcoholic beverages. These bad habits contribute to the appearance of capillary stars and can quickly negate all efforts to get rid of them. Even moderate consumption of alcohol contributes to the instant expansion of blood vessels and their subsequent rapid narrowing, weak capillary walls may not withstand such a load.

Try not to eat excessively hot and spicy food. Hot spices also contribute to the rapid expansion of blood vessels. And by analogy with alcohol, they may not cope with the load, and the impartial capillary stars will again make themselves felt.

We need to forget about traumatic peeling procedures. Hard scrubs can even negate the results of laser removal of spider veins.
