Will PDL be better than IPL for my rosacea? (Photo)

onlyoriginal6009
Hi, I've had two treatments with an IPL laser and so far I think the results have been absolute garbage. I am incredibly disappointed and was wondering if I would have any more success with PDL. My rosacea has made me more self-conscious and been a real problem for me. Also, other than PDL are there any other treatments for the long-term prevention of rosacea? Thanks.
