Treatment:
Many treatments have been tried for port-wine stains including freezing, surgery, radiation, and tattooing. Lasers have made the biggest impact on treatment, because they are the sole method of destroying the tiny blood vessels in the skin without significant damage to the overlying skin.
the flashlamp pumped dye laser, a yellow light laser, has been the most successful at destroying stains in infants and young children. Two other yellow light lasers -- the copper vapor and krypton laser -- have been used successfully in adults. The neodymium-YAG laser is used to treat thick, nodular, deep purple port-wine stains.Hope this helps you out and good luck.>>>>
