Had 4 BBL treatments to treat telangiectasia but see little improvement. Would V-beam or another laser give me better results?

Question

I have quite a few telangiecasia on my face; mainly on my cheeks and nose. I had a series of 4 bbl treatments with the last treatment quite aggressive. It has been 8 weeks since my 4th treatment and I see little to no improvement. Would V-beam or another laser give me better results? I am in my sixties with fair, thin, skin. I also just had my first sculptra injections to help with loss of collagen in my face.

Vbeam laser is an excellent modality for patients who have rosacea, blushing of the skin, facial and body telangiectasia, spider veins, redness, post surgical redness, and skin flushing. It is a safe procedure that can be used at varying depths to help treat micro blood vessels in the skin. We also use it in our office for facial skin inflammation, keloids, and hypertrophic scarring. It is an important part of scar therapy. Vbeam can be combined with chemical peels and other lasers, but experience with the treatment is essential. The Vbeam laser does not affect deeper tissue. Schedule a consultation with an expert in Vbeam and you will find it to be an excellent modality for many skin types.
