Laser Treatment for Teleangiectasia After Doxycycline?

I am considering having laser treatment (KTP Gemini 532nm) for teleangiectasia on my nose. I was taking Doxycycline for 8-9 months, but stopped 12 weeks ago after having sun sensitivity from it (brought about the appearance of teleangiectasia and sun spots a little earlier in life!). Is it okay to have the laser procedure after 12 or so weeks after taking Doxycycline? I noticed the different drug, Roaccutane, recommends 26 weeks before any laser procedure.
