I need information about KTP laser (Aura)

Hello,
I'm a 23-year old woman with PWS on my left cheek, half of nose and upper lip. I have been receiving laser treatments for around 15 years now, starting from argon through dye laser and now KTP (since December 2003- around 9 sessions). My PWS has faded around 30% during these 15 years. So far I haven't seen any considerable improvement after KTP (except that it is more painful than the previous ones and the skin recovery lasts much longer) and would like to ask if anybody has had any experience with that laser. I'm from Poland and KTP is a very 'new' thing here. I would be grateful for any information
