Treatment of linear epidermal nevi is difficult. Many therapies have been tried, including topical and intralesional glucocorticoids, topical and systemic retinoids, and topical 5-fluoruracil. Other methods include dermabrasion, liquid nitrogen cryotherapy, laser therapy, and surgical excision. Surgical excision provides the best opportunity for complete remission but is complicated by the potential size of the scar. Talk to your doctor about the options mentioned and discuss which is suited for you. Take care and keep us posted.
Thank you very much for ur immediate response.Yes i am taking laser treatment for my nevus on the face (for every 2 year).
Normally my doctor use YAG Irbium Laser for my removal of nevus.But recently i heard about ALMA Laser.I want to know which is good and better.
