Spider veins forming on nose

[Nate596]

Hi! I am a 22 year old male and have recently began to develop spider veins on my nose. Unless very close, you cannot tell that they are actual veins, my nose just has a pinkish hue to it. I think it might be do to the fact that I was in the sun without protection a lot this summer. I have read about this condition, and understand that laser treatments can take care of the veins. Should I ask my dermatologist about this? Where can I receive the treatment? Is this done at a dermatologists office? Any information would be incredibly helpful.

Your dermatologist will give you evaluation and advice. These prominent facial veins may be only cosmetic in consequence, or may be a symptom of a condition such as rosacea.
Rosacea and facial redness can be worsened by changes in temperature, caffeine, alcohol, hot drinks, spicy food and food high in histamines.
There are some useful over-the-counter product available for facial redness. Rosaliac by La Roche-Posay is very good, as is the Redness Relief range by Eucerin and the Redness Solutions range by Clinique.
Eloise.
