None: I really do not exclude anyone except the very young that will not be able to hold still during treatment.

None: Although injection of these veins is a way to treat this cosmetic problem, laser therapy works better in my practice and is safer overall.

Age restriction: Like dr. Hansen, i wouldn't treat anyone who is too young to hold still. Generally though, i think it would be unlikely for someone who is much younger than 21 to want to have treatment for thread veins around their eyes. At 21 or older, i certainly would have no hesitation in treating someone.
