Introduction
In general, there are various methods to improve and repair facial redness (visible blood vessels). Daily skincare routines may include enhanced sun protection, using gentle and non-irritating skincare products, washing the face with cold water to strengthen skin tolerance, and avoiding excessive cleansing. Additionally, medical aesthetic treatments such as liquid nitrogen cryotherapy, red and blue light therapy, intense pulsed light (IPL), photorejuvenation, and fractional laser therapy can also be used for improvement and repair.

In general, there are various methods to improve and repair facial redness caused by visible blood vessels.

Additionally, medical aesthetic treatments such as liquid nitrogen cryotherapy, red and blue light therapy, intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy, photorejuvenation, and fractional laser treatment can also effectively improve and repair facial redness.

Facial vascular dilation leading to visible red blood vessels may result from genetic factors—such as a family history of susceptibility genes—that make individuals more sensitive to environmental stimuli, thus causing facial capillary dilation. In daily life, proper sun protection should be maintained to reduce UV-induced skin damage. Hormonal fluctuations, particularly imbalances between estrogen and progesterone, may weaken capillary walls, making them prone to rupture and resulting in facial vascular dilation. In such cases, medications like compound estradiol tablets or medroxyprogesterone acetate tablets may be used under medical supervision for hormonal regulation. Improper skincare practices, such as excessive cleansing that damages the skin barrier, can also lead to capillary dilation; this can be improved through topical skincare products or photorejuvenation treatments.
