Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterised by facial redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes acne-like bumps. While the exact cause remains unknown, factors such as genetics, environmental triggers, and an overactive immune system are believed to play a role.
Facial thread veins, commonly referred to as spider veins, are small, dilated blood vessels that appear just beneath the skin's surface, typically on the chin, nose, and cheeks. They often resemble tiny spider webs or branching patterns and can vary in colour from red to purple.
There is evidence suggesting a potential association between rosacea and the development of facial thread veins. The chronic inflammation characteristic of rosacea may lead to the dilation of blood vessels, including those near the skin's surface, contributing to the formation of thread veins over time. Additionally, certain skincare products and treatments used to manage rosacea symptoms might inadvertently exacerbate vascular issues, highlighting the importance of choosing the right products for your skin.
