Vbeam or YAG laser for capillaries

Dr. Rivkin:

I have quite a few broken capillaries on my face and I have tried vbeam laser. I had three treatments so far and I don’t see
any difference at all. I actually have more broken capillaries now. Can you suggest a treatment for capillaries that would really show some improvement? What type of laser is best for this? Why did the vbeam not work for me at all?
I have also tried IPL before the vbeam and it helped for general redness but not much for the capillaries.
Thanks so much.

hi,
the vbeam is a pulsed dye laser.
i would use the yag 1064 laser for your capillaries. that is my preferred first choice for capillaries. most companies like palomar and lumenis make one.
hope that helps
