About this trial

This prospective, non-randomized study aims to evaluate the efficacy and tolerability of treating port-wine stains (capillary malformations) using pulsed dye laser (PDL), potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) laser, or a sequential combination of both. Each participant will receive all three treatments on different areas of the lesion. The primary outcome is improvement measured using the Investigator Global Assessment (IGA) scale. Secondary outcomes include pain (VAS), local adverse events, and patient satisfaction.
