As we get older, changes occur in the skin. It becomes thinner and more fragile, so that blood vessels under the skin become much more obvious. Loss of oestrogen after the menopause tends to magnify these effects.

Spidery red veins are common and can occur on legs, arms, or on the face as in your case. Many women do find them upsetting, but they always seem more obvious to those who have them than they do to others.

On a positive note, these marks are not an indicator of anything serious going on inside your body, but rather a normal effect of ageing. Try to concentrate on eating healthily, getting enough sleep, and exercising regularly, as these are the most important factors in maintaining a healthy body and mind.
