Laser or Chemical Peel?

As I have said many times on this forum, it is not the modality of the treatment which is important in giving patients the results that they seek. It is the experience and the expertise of the treating physician that matters most of all. IMHO, chemical peels often provide the same results as the laser, usually at less cost. Broken capillaries may respond best to treatment with a hyfrecator (less costly) or with an IPL (more costly).
