585-nm pulsed dye laser to treat Molluscum Contagiosum
by tested1, Aug 01, 2008 12:25AM
Hello,
I live in the Seattle area and was reacently diagnosed with Molluscum Contagiosum at my public STD clinic. I'm seeking a dermatologist in my area who has the equipment and expertise to treat me with laser therapy. I have found numerous references that cite the effectiveness of using a 585-nm pulsed dye laser for this purpose. Generally the only downside that is mentioned is cost. The first office I called in my area said that they don't have a 585-nm laser nor did they know any other places locally that do either...
So my question is: how can I locate an office/physician who at least has this equipment/expertise?
