Hi am seeing a private consultant next week about laser treatment for my lichen Sclerosus has any one out there tried laser treatment and if so how successful was it. I know it’s expensive but if it helps the symptoms significantly I’ll give it a go 

thank you

    Have not tried it but curious how that works out for you and what the doctor says about eradicating it entirely or is it just temporary.

    I have had two series of treatments a year apart. They helped tremendously with itching/burning. It is a management tool not a cure but it has allowed me to significantly reduce the use of steroids

      Are you in the UK?  Have not heard of laser treatment and would be interested to know if it helps with adhesions too.
