Can adults get port wine stain birthmarks removed with laser treatments? (photos)

pdxaquarian
I'm 47 and have a prominent port wine stain birthmark in my upper right portion of my face, bumping into my eye and expanding under my hairline. I'd like to explore laser removal or reduction of the birthmark. Some areas of it are dark purple, others are a splotchy red. Are these treatments available for adults and if so, what is an average cost?
