How long before I can tell if the treatment worked?

I had laser surgery for a large port-wine stain on my lower leg two weeks ago. I'm now on my 8th round of laser treatment.

Hello!
Results from laser treatment vary depending on certain factors, such as how large or how dark the stains are. Some people may need to have several laser treatment sessions for the port wine stain to be removed.
Thank you!

I am currently on a very low dose of Accutane. I take 10mg once every four days. I have read the Vbeam laser can be used in these circumstances at a low setting with no problems. Is this correct?
