Which is better - vascular laser or IPL?

[RedFacedRedHead]

I just found out that someone I've known for years (and who apparently as rosacea as well, although I'd never noticed it on her, but I only see her once a year or so) has found someone who's doing IPL in Boston. I don't know what kind of laser they're using (I still need to do more research), but I'm wondering if IPL is generally speaking more successful than vascular laser or if it depends on the kind of rosacea one has. I have a lot of redness and burning/flushing (lately the burning and flushing have both been steadier - I'm not sure why but perhaps the heat of summer is triggering it?). I have lots of P&P, as well as some visible veins, but my derm says that the P&P will go away if we can get the flushing/burning under control.

Any words of advice?

Hi RedFacedRedHead,

I don't have the answer to your question, but was hoping you could share more information on this Dr. in Boston. I'm looking for someone in the Northeast and Boston is only a few hours away from me.

Thanks!
