Intervention type: Device
Intervention name: 532 nm laser treatment
Description: The port wine birthmark will be treated with the DermaV 532 nm laser.
Arm group label: Port wine stain

Summary: The goal of this study is to learn about treatment of port wine birthmarks treated with an FDA-approved 532 nm laser. The main questions it aims to answer are: - How well are the treatments tolerated? - Are there differences in tolerability of the treatment when a single high fluence laser pulse is used (the standard treatment) versus using multiple low fluence pulses? - Are there differences in results when using a single high fluence pulse versus multiple low fluence pulses? type of study: Clinical Trial Participants will undergo 3 monthly laser treatments with the 532 nm DermaV laser. Part of their birthmark will be treated with the standard single-pulse high fluence approach, and other parts will be treated with the multiple-pulse low fluence approach.

Participation in a clinical trial of another drug, or device administered to the treatment area, within 3 months prior to enrollment or during the study. 2. Any type of prior cosmetic or port wine stain treatment to the target area within 3 months of study participation. 3. Suffering from significant skin conditions in the treated areas or inflammatory skin conditions, including but not limited to, open lacerations or abrasions, hidradenitis, rash, infection , or dermatitis of the treatment area prior to treatment (duration of resolution as per the Investigator's discretion). 4.

History of keloid scarring, hypertrophic scarring or abnormal wound healing or prone to bruising. 9. Has a history of squamous cell carcinoma or melanoma in the treatment area. 10. History of epidermal or dermal disorders (particularly if involving collagen or microvascularity), including collagen vascular disease or vasculitic disorders. 11.
