There are different methods for the treatment of capillary cracks in the skin. Capillaries, the thinnest blood vessels in the human body, have the task of carrying blood to the farthest points of the body. These vessels usually provide blood flow between arteries and veins. Capillaries intertwined with body tissues can play an important role in the nutrition between these tissues. Cracked capillaries can occur in areas where these vessels are weakened. When cracking occurs, blood will leak to the surface of the skin. Capillary cracks, which appear as red stripes on the skin, can cause bruises on the skin.

What is Capillary Fracture?

Treatment of capillary rupture in the skin should be planned according to the person's skin structure and the condition of the capillary rupture. Expansion and rupture of the vein closest to the skin surface may cause capillary cracks in the skin. These vessels, which have a total length of 40 thousand kilometers in the body, and capillaries, which are the circulatory system organ closest to the skin surface, can frequently be damaged due to external and internal physical factors. In these cases of damage, ruptures in the vessels may occur. Blood leakage manifests itself by causing bruising and redness on the skin. Capillary rupture may occur not only when the vessel ruptures but also as a result of its narrowing or expansion. These cracks, which also occur due to environmental and physical reasons, are red and purple when they first appear, but turn white over time. As they become whiter, their treatment becomes more difficult.

What are the Skin Capillary Treatments?

Treatment of capillary rupture on the skin can be done with different applications. With treatments such as sclerotherapy, radio frequency and laser methods, scars can be treated permanently without leaving any scars. Painless, effective and scar-free capillary treatment is applied without causing any damage to the tissues around the crack. With sclerotherapy treatment, medications are administered through a needle into the ruptured vein. Since the vein is directly intervened, the cracks can be closed permanently. In the radiofrequency method, high heat waves are used. In this way, blood flow in the problematic vessels is interrupted. This type of treatment for vascular cracks in the skin is mostly applied in the treatment of small and regional cracks. It is very important to protect the skin from external effects after the application.
