I am getting part of mine done tomorrow (thought they were going to do it all) and I can't sleep... I would just like to know if anyone DID have it done, did it hurt? what did it look like after? how long until it looked "normal" if ever?
yes, i have. it was on my arm/deltoid area. a red(port wine) birthmark. it did hurt. they zapped the blood vessels with the laser. in the days after it scabbed up. a week or two to heal. i only had one treatment done, and it faded quite a bit. its been 12 years and still looks the same. i was told it would take 3 sessions to be completely removed, but now when i have a tan you can hardly notice it.
