Patients of all ages may deal with conditions that result in the appearance of facial veins. These broken capillaries can show up on the face as tiny red veins that do not disappear over time. This condition is also known as telangiectasia rosacea. These veins are extremely delicate and can be damaged easily as they are just beneath the upper layer of the skin. Patients who scrub their face too hard, experience excessive sun exposure or incur a facial injury may experience broken capillaries. However, the condition is not always preventable, and triggers such as rosacea can increase their appearance. Genetics also play a part in whether a patient may experience broken capillaries.

However, the more severe the condition, the harder it can be to cover up with over-the-counter cosmetics.
