Is there a laser for treatment of eczema on lips?

January 3, 2022
Asked By:Exciting9167 in Houston, Texas

I’ve had scaly, peeling lips for years. A doc tried 2 steroid creams that did nothing and now wants to inject steroids into my lips which seems like a very bad idea. Is there a laser or light therapy that could address stubborn eczema? It’s not around my mouth, it’s just on my lower lip. Thanks!
