If you’ve ever caught a glimpse of tiny red or purple squiggles on your cheeks, nose, or legs and thought, “Where did those come from?”—you’re not alone. Broken capillaries are one of the most common (and most frustrating) skin concerns out there. But here’s the good news: at Kinwell Medical Services in Staten Island, NY, there’s a sleek little secret weapon that’s changing the game for clearer, calmer skin—meet the Alma Harmony laser platform.
What Are Broken Capillaries, Anyway?
Broken capillaries—also known as spider veins or telangiectasia—are tiny blood vessels that become visible just beneath the surface of the skin. They often show up as red, blue, or purple lines, and while they’re harmless, they can be a major buzzkill for your complexion. Common culprits? Sun damage, genetics, aging, rosacea, extreme weather, and even overly aggressive skincare routines (yes, that DIY scrub might be doing more harm than good).
They tend to pop up on the face (especially around the nose and cheeks) and legs, and once they’re there, no amount of concealer can truly make them disappear. That’s where laser technology comes in.
Enter: The Alma Harmony
At Kinwell Medical Services, the VascuPen handpiece is the go-to tool for treating broken capillaries with precision and finesse. It’s part of the Alma Harmony XL PRO system—a powerhouse aesthetic platform that’s beloved by dermatologists and med spas alike for its versatility and results.
So what makes the VascuPen so special? It uses advanced laser energy to target and collapse those pesky broken capillaries without damaging the surrounding skin. The result: clearer, more even-toned skin with minimal downtime and maximum glow.
How It Works
The Harmony delivers focused bursts of light energy that are absorbed by the hemoglobin in the blood vessels. This causes the vessel walls to heat up and collapse, eventually being reabsorbed by the body. Translation: the visible capillaries fade away like a bad memory.
The treatment is quick (usually under 30 minutes), and most clients describe the sensation as a mild snapping or warming feeling—totally tolerable, especially when you know what’s waiting on the other side: smoother, more radiant skin.
So, What Can We Treat?
While broken capillaries are the star of the show, the VascuPen handpiece at Kinwell Medical Services can also treat a variety of vascular lesions and pigment-related skin concerns, including:
- Facial redness and flushing
- Spider veins on the legs
- Cherry angiomas (those little red dots)
- Rosacea-related blood vessels
- Telangiectasia on the nose and cheeks
It’s a favorite among Staten Island locals who want to address these issues without surgery, needles, or long recovery times.

Located in the heart of Staten Island, Kinwell Medical Services is known for its warm, welcoming vibe and cutting-edge aesthetic treatments. Their team of licensed professionals takes the time to understand your skin goals and tailor each VascuPen session to your unique needs.
Before your treatment, you’ll have a consultation to assess your skin and determine if you’re a good candidate (spoiler alert: most people are!). Aftercare is simple—just avoid sun exposure, skip the hot yoga for a day or two, and slather on that SPF like your skin depends on it (because it does).
Real Talk: Is Your Treatment for Broken Capillaries Really Worth It?
If you’ve been battling broken capillaries with creams, serums, and filters, it might be time to level up. The Harmony treatment at Kinwell Medical Services offers real, visible results—often after just one session. And with minimal downtime, it’s the perfect lunch-break beauty fix.
