Cutera Excel V or IPL at 590 filter for Rosacea?

CraigsisnotalistJul 27, 2023
Hello, I'm interested in vascular laser treatment for rosacea Type 1 (redness/flushing only). My skin is delicate and sensitive (porcelain skin). Can you advise which is better in this case: Cutera Excel V or an IPL treatment with the 590 filter? (and is the latter basically the same thing as V Beam?) Thank you so much.
