    Author: Mariwalla K, Dover JS.
    Journal: Skin Therapy Lett; 2005 Oct; 10(8):7-9. PubMed ID: 16292457.
    Abstract:
    Over the past 2 decades, there have been numerous advances in laser therapy of birth-marks in the pediatric population. Concerns regarding efficacy, overall benefit, and side-effects linger. We present our opinion, based upon decades of clinical experience, on the role of lasers to treat port wine stains, superficial hemangiomas, and café au lait macules in children.
