A little. You can use yellow- or green-tinted makeup to hide red highlights without looking heavily made-up. There are several brands, available at cosmetic counters.
The other option is to have some of the ruddiness and blood vessels lasered away. Current technology makes this rather simple, safe, and not too expensive (in the few-hundred-dollar range.)
Take care.
