How To Correct White Spots After Laser Treatment? (photo)

K
KnazenDec 30, 2011

I had a laser treatment done in early October, it has almost been 4 months and the white spots are still there. Is there anything I can do in order to help the spots go away? any cream? any treatments? I am getting married next year and I truly want to do something about this. I have heard that Selsun blue helps, is this true? Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you so much.
