What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

In this study the investigators aim to optimize Port-Wine-Birthmark (PBW) laser therapy in children in order to reduce the number of laser treatments required for clearance and improve outcomes for refractory cases. This approach also seeks to reduce the frequency with which children require general anesthesia for treatment.
