I Have Two Bulging Veins On Either Side Of My Temple, Can These Be Removed Any Way ?
I have two bulging veins on either side of my temple running from my ear, all along the side of my head to my hear line. They are very prominent and when they are enlarged after exercise or alcohol consumption can be very noticeable. I m not a vain person but it s making me lose confidence. Can these be removed either by surgery or injection ?

Dear Mr. S. Brown,
The veins you have mentioned can be sclerosed using injections by a surgeon as head has got good vascular supply and anastomoses.
