    What are Broken Capillaries?

    This cosmetic concern is characterised by small and dilated blood vessels. These often show up as small purple or blue lines on the skin. Visible capillaries can cause a wide range of aesthetic concerns when presented on an individual’s skin.

    What Could Be Causing Broken Capillaries?

    There’s no single cause behind broken capillaries in the skin. This is because these arise as a result of varying factors, from the environment to hereditary reasons. Some causes for this concern include extreme weather conditions, excess exposure to the sun, natural ageing and facial trauma.

    How Do I Know if a Vascular Reduction Treatment is Right for Me?

    It can be difficult to know whether a service is right for your skin. In the initial consultation stage, our team will work to assess your eligibility for this treatment. However, there are some indicators which could help you understand whether you’re eligible.

    See whether you could be eligible:

    • For those with persistent facial redness
    • People looking to reduce the look of broken capillaries
    • Visible spider veins on certain body parts, such as the chest and face
    • Benign lesions on the skin, including cherry angiomas
    • No heavy sun exposure lately
    • Not breastfeeding or pregnant
    • Not taking photosensitising medications

    *Please note that the above is a general overview of treatment eligibility. If you’re unsure, please consult with your general practitioner, or our team at Results Laser Clinic for further information.

    Results Laser Clinic in Brisbane: A Tailored, Clinical Approach to Skin

    From hiding visible veins, to soothing skin redness, we’re here to potentially help with your unique skin goals. Our team of cosmetic nurses considers a wide range of factors, including your skin tone, type and its triggers. By doing so, we’re then able to determine the most promising method for your skin.

    How Results Can Target Broken Capillaries Seen on Skin

    At Results Laser Clinic, we offer two laser vascular reduction treatments for redness. These both emit light to target the root cause within the capillary. Once targeted, the capillary heats up and is later dispersed within the lymphatic drainage system. Depending on the location and extent of the capillaries, we’ll determine which solution is suitable for you.

    See how below:

    Intense Pulsed Light Treatment (IPL)

    The IPL treatment targets larger surface areas for facial flushing. It works by emitting light to make blood vessels smaller, and as a result, minimises the appearance of redness on the skin. It requires an ongoing treatment plan for a promising outcome.

    Nd:Yag Laser Treatment

    Laser technology is a focused method to potentially target broken capillaries. This is typically emitted to skin at a wavelength of 1064nm. It’s a process designed to treat smaller areas of flushing by the concentrated, targeted beam. This process works through converting the light to heat, targeting capillaries.

    Know Your Capillary Treatment: The Pros and Side Effects

    Prior to your in-clinic treatment, it’s important to be completely informed of the protocol. At Results Laser Clinic, we aim to ensure that you’re aware of both treatment benefits and downsides. The bottom line is that everyone’s skin is different, and yours may react differently. If you have any questions or concerns we’re here to address these in your initial consultation.

    The Benefits

    Whether you want to treat symptoms of a skin condition, or reduce facial redness, a capillary treatment is promising. This can come alongside several benefits, which could unveil more radiant and even-toned skin.

    Explore the benefits below:

    • Reduce the appearance of blood vessels
    • Makeup not needed to eliminate redness
    • Boosts self-confidence in natural beauty
    • Hides the look of red patches
    • Evens out the skin tone and complexion

    The Risks

    Before you choose a broken capillary treatment, it’s important to be made aware of the potential side effects. At Results Laser Clinic, our team always aims to keep you informed of the downsides of the treatment.

    See treatment risks below:

    • Brief bruising on the treatment area afterwards
    • Chance of minor scabbing on the skin
    • Mild redness and swelling for a few days
    • Vessels continuing to grow, demanding ongoing treatments
    • Several sessions may be required for results

    *The outcome of a capillary treatment varies from individual to individual. If you have any questions, or concerns regarding this, contact our cosmetic nurses at Results Laser Clinic.

    Maintain Skin Wellness Post-Treatment: The Results Guide

    Both before and after your cosmetic treatment, the right skin care steps have an impact on the outcome of your treatment. At Results Laser Clinic, our cosmetic nurses will advise you on the right lifestyle and skincare protocol. By remaining aware of the right steps to take, this can ensure a smoother healing process for your skin.

    See the approach that we recommend:

    Timeline One week prior Two weeks prior Four weeks prior
    Skin Preparation Stay away from mechanical and chemical exfoliants within your skincare routine. Avoid fake tanning and stay away from invasive hair removal methods. Major skin irritants must be avoided, such as cosmetic peel treatments. Also, stay away from the sun, sun beds, and laser hair removal treatments.

    Timeline 24–48 hours post treatment One week post treatment Four weeks post treatment
    Skin Maintenance Avoid any sweat inducing activities, whether it’s recreational sports or taking hot showers. Apply SPF + consistently to protect your skin such as our Results Active SPF 50+, providing the highest SPF available. Also, don’t apply any makeup over the treatment area. Keep your skincare routine soothing, with calm ingredient formulations. This means avoiding products containing harsh actives, and instead, opting for skincare like our Results Active Recovery Gel. Don’t tan your skin, or have excessive exposure to the sun, this way it can protect your skin health.

    FAQ's

    The treatment is generally not too painful, and can feel like a rubber band sensation on the skin. However, the pain varies based on the treatment that’s opted for by our team. For example, although more painful, the laser treatment is paired with a cooling sensation.

    Right after the treatment, you can expect some mild symptoms on the treatment area. The temporary side effects can include redness, swelling and bruising. This typically subsides within the first 24–48 hours, if symptoms persist contact us for further advice.

    A broken capillary treatment requires consistent treatment sessions over time. This is because the factors causing blood vessel dilation are ongoing. Our cosmetic nurses will work to derive the appropriate treatment plan based on your unique skin type.

    The timeline to see results varies from person to person. Some may discover a visible improvement in just one session, whereas others may need several sessions to see results. Our team typically recommends an initial treatment plan of four to six sessions. The sessions are at intervals of two or four weeks.
