Does Rosacea complicate fraxel treatment for acne scars?

Nigel Browning
I have 2 problems. 1) acne scars from when I was a teenager (I am 40 yrs.) 2) mild rosacea. I know Fraxel is recommended for acne scars and IPL for rosacea. If I have only one of the treatments which would be the more effective for attempting to tackle both problems?
