Under laser treatment(argon, pulsed dye laser) good results are shown. At lower extension, stitching with diathermy needle can also be attempted. In exceptional cases sclerotherapy with polidocanol (e.g. aethoxysclerol). If necessary, cosmetic covering of the affected areas (e.g. Dermacolor). Caution! Consistent sun protection (e.g. Anthelios, Eucerin Sun). See below for light protection agents.
