I am trying to find the best way with the best results to remove a venous lake from my lip. I have read that some dentists are removing these with diode lasers with success. Has anyone tried this method before? Were you happy with the results? It's seems like it has a shorter recovery time than with the nd yag lasers, and can usually clear the lesion in one try. Is it too good to be true? I haven't had much luck locating too many doctors who use this method. Closest one to me is a 6 hour drive. Don't know if it would be worth it. Any info would be helpful.

Hello Hahndo

Thank you for writing.

Some of our readers have had success using castor oil on the affected lip.

But others have had success with laser treatment. Being that you're so far away from clinics that can provide this for you, I understand your hesitancy.

You can read our readers stories here (cut and paste the links):

We hope you find something that works for you-
