Summary

This study looks at how well people tolerate laser treatment for port wine birthmarks using an FDA-approved 532 nm laser. Fifteen adults with non-facial birthmarks will receive three monthly treatments, comparing the standard single high-energy pulse to multiple low-energy pulses. The goal is to see which approach causes less discomfort and gives better results.
