A member asked:
Is removing of sun spots on face using laser a safe procedure? are there any long terms side effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Qualified doctor: It is safe and effective int he properly trained hands. I see you are in saudi arabia with lots of sun exposure and possibly a darker skin tone thus you must be careful or else you can get a burn , scar, a darkening of the skin ore worse lightening. Do not do anything until out of sun 2 weeks or more
