What is the best way to remove tiny veins and capillaries around the nose?

What is the best way to remove tiny veins/capillaries from around the nose?

A:

I find the best way to treat spider veins along the ala or "sides" of the nose is using light cautery or hyfercation.  Basically this is done as a local procedure where a small amount of heat is conducted onto a very small needle (usually a 30 gauge needle) and this will obliterate these veins without leaving a scar.

Q:

Are there specialists in earlobe reduction and reshaping surgery?

I want to have earlobe reduction/reshaping surgery.  I am having a difficult time finding a surgeon in my area (N. California) who has performed this type of surgery.  Are there plastic surgeon who specialize in this procedure????

A:

I frequently perform earlobe repairs each week in my office in Houston, TX.  I would recommend consulting a board certified plastic surgeon in your area.  Any board certified plastic surgeon should be able to help you.
