Are treatments with a dye laser (V-Star or Photogenica, Cynosure) worth a try? (photos)

Asked By:DeepBlue90 in New York, NY

When I was a teenager, I had fairly strong acne. The doctors prescribed erythromycin spirit, acid peeling and isotretinoin pills. From then on my cheek skin looked reddish and the pores were puffy. My local doctor says that the connective tissue of my skin is damaged because of that. Several dermatologists said I have Rosacea papulopustulosa. 3 IPL-treatments couldn't improve my situation. My question: Could treatments with a dye laser (V-Star or Photogenica, Cynosure) promise any improvement?
