Spider Naevus / Red Veins / Telangiectasia (red/purple capillaries)


Broken or dilated blood capillaries on the surface of the skin, usually found on more exposed areas of the skin like the nose and cheeks. The skin looks like it has little blood lines on it, which are usually red but become darker in colour as they get worse. Certain conditions will worsen broken capillaries as above
