Hi beauty4me,
Great question! Depending on what is causing the broken capillaries will dictate what treatment would best work. If the broken capillaries are because of poor skin health from sun damage/smoking/etc... then I would recommend IPL specifically targeting those vascular lesions. However, if it is something that is forming internally (such as a condition called Osler-Weber-Rendau: I currently am treating a patient with this), it requires a combination of therapy of medication plus extra laser sources. Without seeing you, I cannot really tell you more which category you might fall into. Feel free to email me through my profile. Take care and best of luck! Dr. Alex Liu (Torrance, CA)
