Management of cosmetically objectionable periocular veins
Semin Plast Surg.
2007 Feb.
Abstract
Cosmetically objectionable reticular veins in the eyelids may be managed by transection and cautery, extraction with a special phlebectomy hook, laser ablation with the neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet laser, or sclerotherapy using sodium tetradecyl sulfate.
Keywords: Eyelid veins; Nd:YAG laser ablation; periocular reticular veins; sclerotherapy.
