Q: Preventing collagen loss, broken capillaries and brown spots
A:
Unfortunately, laser nor peels are effective at "preventing" the collagen loss, brown spots and broken capillaries. Laser may be effective at treating some of these issues but not preventing them. The best shot at prevention resides in the "old standards" - diligent use of sunscreen and avoidance of sun and then regular use of retina.
