Which type of doctor is more suitable for spider vein removal?

Which type of doctor is most suitable for the following: 1- removal of spider veins on legs, and 2- broken capillaries around nose? Would it be a dermatologist at a top Boston hospital? (MGH, BWH, etc), or a plastic surgeon who does all kinds of surgery in private practice? since this is a skin issue I am leaning towards the dermatologist, but would appreciate to hear pros and cons.
