Electrodessication for Facial Capillaries

I consulted with a prominent plastic surgeon about using electrodessication for my facial capillaries. I have tried many of the usually recommended treatments without positive results. Anyhow, this doctor said that although electrodessication is effective, it can leave enlarged pores. Is this correct?

A: Broken blood vessels on the face

Electrodesiccation was the only approach available prior to the 80s. Nowadays, the pulsed dye laser, KTP laser & Intense pulse light treatment, give excellent results with no adverse events, except for some bruising that may occur at the treated areas for a few days after the procedure. All are done with no anesthesia, or just topical anaesthetic creams. usually 1-3 sessions are needed, one month apart.
