Treatment at an early age achieved better initial efficacy (0\u2010 to 12\u2010month group &gt;1\u2010 to 6\u2010year group, 6\u2010 to 12\u2010year group). And 0\u2010 to 12\u2010month group achieved better final efficacy. More treatment sessions also increased the final efficacy. Both initial efficacy and final efficacy were better when treating a darker lesion. The incidence of complications was 12.1%, with 10.8% being post\u2010inflammatory hyperpigmentation and 1.3% being hypopigmentation.
