Laser Genesis for Sun Damaged Skin? (photo)

indygirl
I am scheduled to have 4-6 Laser Genesis (Cutera) treatments to reduce a generalized, diffused redness to my skin and restore the milky complexion I once had. I am hopeful it will tighten my skin (if only slightly) and reduce pore size. Is this the right laser therapy for me? I am 37, with very few wrinkles (thanks to genetics), but have had sun damage from childhood. I was informed that I would need IPL in addition to reduce the appearance of sun spots. Will this procedure be effective for my goal in reducing the red 'hue' I have to my skin or is there another laser procedure that would be more effective or comprehensive?
