User Avatar

Female, 35 with mild to moderate Rosacea. I am already scheduled to have an IPL Photofacial and then 2 months after I am booked for a 4-layer chemical peel. Should I have the IPL Photofacial then wait and have the Chemical Peel OR should I have the Chemical Peel and then wait to have the IPL Photofacial??? Opinion??? Why??? Length of time between treatments? Also, since I have mild Rosacea should I have more than one Photofacial or would one be enough? Thanks in advance!!!
