Capalaries are the smallest veins in the body, they 'sprout' off of bigger veins. and they come to the surface for more air in some cases or it could be hereditaity. also it could be from heat or cold.. try drinking water, not wearing as much facial make up, and moisturize.

I have one below my left eye, it's been there for about a year and a half, and I've heard that vitamin K creams can help by increasing circulation, but I have yet to find a good cream to try. I've found that eating a lot of leafy greens like spinach and kale helps (which are very high in vitamin K), and keeping the area moisturized helps too.

Electrocoagulation is a treatment that can be done to eliminate capillaries or broken blood vessels. You can get it done at medi spas. They insert a very tiny needle into the area and run a current through it, causing the blood to coagulate. It will turn in to a scab and disappear completely after treatment.

Laser or Intense pulsed light works amazing for broken/distended capillaries. Since there is already blood flow to these areas by a feeder vein underneath, these are just temporary solutions. They take a few treatments to start, then you will usually need a maintenance treatment a year or two later. Also facial rejuvenation acupuncture can be done for capillaries as well. It basically works as a blood letting and it works amazingly. Topical creams won't help the actual capillaries themselves, but usually just help to tone down the redness. In the meantime just be gentle with these areas, don't use an aggressive exfoliant over these areas as the capillaries can worsen.

Hey, if you keep getting burst capillaries pop to your doctors and get your blood pressure checked, I would cut down on the salt and try to avoid lots of pressure on the skin, intense rubbing, itching, or leaning on the skin.
