Hey, I wanted to know if there is anything that can be done for black women with birthmarks. I have a significantly dark mark on the back of my right thigh which has gotten bigger as I have grown... I have tried numerous things to try and remove it but so far nothing seems to be working. My latest venture is not the Euoko products, I can hardly tell if it has made a difference at all. I would like to know if there is actually and skincare products that can really help or perhaps a laser that can be used safely to remove this on dark skin.

HELP

Did you use Euoko on the dark mark? Or somewhere else?

Dermatologist have lasers available that reduce birthmarks. But, it depends on how deep your birthmark is...

I'm using Euoko on my face for the last 4 day and it's given me a healthy glow. I don't know whether it's going to work on birthmarks. How long have you been using it?

You can call the company and ask them about it's efficacy on birth marks. But, I doubt if it's a birth mark, since it has been growing.

Euoko is pretty expensive, so you can try using it on your face.

You can try laser surgey. I know people who have removed birthmarks with this procedure.

If you go with laser, make sure you really do some research on your doctor. My mom had laser done to get rid of some moles and it was a disaster.

Took your advise and started doing some research turns out that the nd:yag laser is the best for dark skin. However I am in the UK and it seems the availability of lasers that can safely work on dark skin are few and far between. Anyone have any recommendations for dermatologists of skin therapist clinics that have worked. Also does anyone have knowledge of the vasculight laser, is it an nd:yag? It appears to be many things so I am not too sure.
