<p>My adult daughter has a diffuse red patch at the top of her nose, which has been there for over a year. A dermatologist tried to laser it off, but it didn't help at all. Yesterday she went to a plastic surgeon who told her to learn to love herself the way she is.</p> <p>Great advice, but can we do better than that Paleo folks? </p> <p>Has anyone gotten rid of a spider angioma by removing or adding something to the diet? According to wikipedia, " In women taking oral contraceptives, they may resolve after stopping these contraceptives." Any experience with this?</p> <p>Right now she eats paleo-ish. She lives with me and happliy eats what I cook, but also eats out of the house a lot. She doesn't eat a lot of junk out there, but not really paleo either.</p> <p>Thanks</p>

<p>No paleo ideas, but has she looked into facial sclerotherapy? It's much more effective than lasers at removing spider veins.</p>

<p>Most common reason is endothelial damage to the the capillaries. This is most commonly seen in low estrogen, testosterone or Vitamin D patients.....or those with high cortisol levels. The sex steroid hormones are all endothelial stabilizers. Cortisol breaks down the collagen supports.......</p>

<p>Try pure lavender oil applied topically 3/4 times a day, to the affected area. Avoid rubbing it into the eyes!</p>
