It depends what laser is being used.  Cutera 1064 Nd YAG is an excellent laser for port wine stains.  You cannot use makeup on the stain and get laser because the laser is targeting the hemoglobin in the stain.  No laser will make the port wine stain disappear completely, but significant improvement can be achieved.
