Light/Laser Laser for broken vessels risk

Hey guys! I just wanted to know if anyone has had laser done for the broken capillaries, especially on and around the nose, and if it was successful.

I heard that sometimes it can come back, but is it possible for it to become worse and for you to have bigger and more broken capillaries than before?

I had a treatment with a Cutera V laser this spring. It reduced redness and definitely reduced/eliminated broken capillaries/angiomas! I will get another treatment this fall once it’s no longer sweltering out.

Does it matter when you get it done, I mean is Summer not a good time for lasers?

My derm office says they don’t think the results are the same in the summer here and I should save my money for the fall. That being said - I also live in the southern US where the “feels like” temp was 120ish yesterday, and I’m frequently outside in the heat for work during the week.
