NON-SURGICAL TREATMENT
Broken Capillaries
We know that visible facial vessels are a natural part of life for many people. We also understand that some people may wish to discuss options that address the appearance of these vessels.
Our clinic can provide consultations about visible facial vessels. During consultation, a practitioner will assess your concerns, review your medical history and discuss whether any cosmetic procedure may be appropriate.
Any change in appearance varies between individuals and cannot be guaranteed.

All cosmetic procedures carry risks and may not be suitable for everyone.
Before any procedure is performed, your practitioner will:
- review your medical history, medications and relevant health information
- examine the treatment area
- explain the proposed procedure, limitations and alternatives, including choosing not to proceed
- discuss possible risks and side effects, including less common but more serious complications
Risks associated with procedures involving the jaw or surrounding areas may include:
- redness or swelling
- tenderness or discomfort
- bruising
- temporary muscle weakness
- changes in skin sensation
- infection or delayed healing
- uneven or unexpected aesthetic outcomes
Pain and comfort levels vary between individuals and depend on the procedure used. Some procedures may cause sensations such as pressure, tightness or discomfort during or after treatment.
Written aftercare instructions will be provided if treatment is performed.
After assessment, your practitioner may recommend a vascular-targeted laser treatment (for example, using a device such as Cutera excel V+) if your vessels and skin type are considered suitable. In some cases, they may instead recommend medical review (for example, with a GP or dermatologist), particularly if lesions are new, changing or atypical.
Cooling measures and other comfort strategies may be used. Sensations vary between individuals and by area of the face.
The exact number depends on factors such as vessel size, distribution, skin type and response. A fixed number of sessions or a specific outcome cannot be promised in advance.
Vascular laser is not appropriate for every skin type. Settings are adjusted with care, and in some deeper skin tones or specific vascular patterns, certain treatments may carry a higher risk of pigment change and may not be recommended. Your practitioner will advise whether this approach is suitable for you.
Your practitioner will give specific instructions, which may include:
- Avoiding heat and heavy exercise for at least 24 hours or as advised
- Avoiding picking or rubbing treated areas
- Using gentle skincare while the skin settles
- Applying broad-spectrum SPF 50+ every day and seeking shade, as UV exposure can increase the risk of pigment change and ongoing redness
If you have any unexpected or concerning symptoms, you should seek medical advice promptly and contact the clinic.
