Broken Veins on Face

Broken veins, also known as spider veins or telangiectasia, are small, dilated blood vessels that appear just beneath the surface of the skin, often visible on the face, particularly around the nose, cheeks, and chin. These fine, red or purple vein networks can result from various factors, including sun exposure, genetics, hormonal fluctuations, and certain lifestyle habits. While they pose no medical harm, broken veins can be a cosmetic concern for many, seeking a clearer, more uniform complexion.
