AIt’s worth asking your GP as this may indeed be treatable with laser. Failing that, the Red Cross offers a camouflage make-up service, where they colourmatc­h an individual’s skin tone and teach them how to apply specialist products. The make-up is fully waterproof and may be available on prescripti­on. Visit changingfa­ces.org. uk to find a service close to you.
