I have gotten a little darker now that it is closer to summer. I also have problems with scars from a skin condition called prurigo nodularis. Can I get laser skin treatments to remove the scars and what kind would be best? I also need to know what my Fitzpatrick Skin Type might be, based on the photos? Fitzpatrick Skin Type 4, 5, or 6? What Fitzpatrick Skin Type Am I Most Closet Too, Fitzpatrick Skin Type 4, 5, or 6?
