Broken capillaries, or spider veins, are tiny, dilated blood vessels visible near the skin’s surface. These red, purple, or blue lines can appear on the face and body, affecting your complexion and confidence. Our advanced BBL (Broadband Light) treatment targets these visible vessels, improving your skin’s appearance and creating a smooth, even tone. Quick and effective, our broken capillaries treatment offers minimal downtime and natural-looking results.
BBL (Broadband Light) Therapy
30-45 minutes (varies by treatment area)
Minimal downtime
At Viva Medspa & Wellness, we offer BBL therapy to address broken capillaries. This advanced light-based treatment targets the hemoglobin in the visible blood vessels, causing them to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body. The result is clearer skin with a more even tone and reduced redness.
Patients who receive BBL treatment often see an immediate improvement in the appearance of their broken capillaries. The treated vessels gradually fade over the next few weeks as the body reabsorbs them. You can significantly improve skin clarity and evenness by following a series of treatments and taking proper care of your skin.

This non-invasive treatment uses precise wavelengths of light to target and eliminate visible blood vessels without damaging surrounding tissue. BBL is effective for various skin types and can be used to treat more than one area at a time.
Our broken capillaries treatment suits adults of all ages with visible facial or body veins. Whether you’re struggling with recently broken capillaries or long-standing vascular issues, our tailored treatment can help restore your skin’s natural clarity.
During your consultation, we’ll assess your skin condition and discuss your goals to develop a tailored treatment plan. Avoid certain skincare products, excessive sun exposure, and blood-thinning medications for a few days before your treatment.
Depending on the treatment area, the BBL treatment typically lasts 30-45 minutes. You may feel a mild snapping sensation as the light pulses are delivered, but most patients find the procedure comfortable.
Post-treatment, you may experience some redness and mild swelling, which usually subsides within a few hours. Protect your skin from sun exposure and follow our recommended gentle skincare routine. You can typically resume normal activities immediately.
The number of treatments needed depends on the severity of your broken capillaries. Many patients see improvement after 1-3 treatments spaced 3-4 weeks apart. We recommend a customized skincare regimen and periodic maintenance treatments to maintain results and prevent new broken capillaries from forming.

BBL uses specific wavelengths of light to target the hemoglobin in visible blood vessels. This causes the vessels to collapse and be reabsorbed by the body, reducing their appearance on the skin’s surface.
There is usually little discomfort experienced during the procedure. You may feel a mild snapping sensation as the light pulses are delivered, but the treatment is generally well-tolerated.
Treatment times typically range from 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the specific area(s) being treated.
Some improvement may be visible immediately after treatment, with continued enhancement over the next few weeks as the body reabsorbs the treated vessels.
While BBL primarily targets existing broken capillaries, it can also improve overall skin health, potentially reducing the likelihood of future vascular issues. Consistent sun protection and a healthy lifestyle are crucial for maintaining results.
Side effects are generally mild and may include temporary redness, slight swelling, or a feeling similar to a mild sunburn. These typically subside within a few hours to a day. Our experienced professionals will discuss potential side effects specific to your treatment plan.
