This study was conducted to examine and compare the clinical response of patients with small hemangiomas treated with two non-ablative lasers with wavelength radiation 755 nm and 595 nm. The treatment efficacy – curative effect and loss of pigment and appearance of scars were compared using Pearson’s chi-square test. The therapeutic effect of 595 nm laser radiation was very high – almost 100%. In the contrary, the exposure of 755 nm laser radiation caused loss of pigment and scar formation in some cases.
