Silverton may sue doc over laser treatment
British news presenter Kate Silverton is threatening to sue the doctor who conducted the laser skin-rejuvenation procedure that temporarily disfigured her.
Silverton, 37, underwent the treatment to have acne scars removed and to improve her skin tone; however, her face ended up swollen and covered in painful sores and lumps, the Daily Telegraph reported.
She was also forced to take two weeks off from her job at the BBC, the report said.
Although Silverton is now back to work, she told her attorneys to begin proceedings against the Jan Stanek clinic in London.
"It's been awful. I went in to get some minor scarring on my cheeks treated. I was told it would be a routine procedure and I'd be back to work in days. The treatment, however, caused a massive skin reaction," Silverton told the Telegraph.
SLU researchers to look at laser treatment for acne scars

The scars are difficult to remove. Physicians usually treat the scars by removing the surface of the skin with powerful lasers or chemical treatments. These treatments can cause discoloration for people with darker skin. Dermatologists at Saint Louis University plan a clinical trial to see if a gentler laser treatment might help. The technique would use lasers that bypass the surface of the skin and stimulate collagen growth underneath. .
