Can brown/purple discolorations (Melanin Pigmentation) on the gums be removed by laser?

I have dark spots on my front gums. Has anyone had laser gum whitening (depigmentation)?

Yes! Laser-assisted depigmentation evaporates excess melanin pigment in the gums with local anesthesia in a single session. Within 1 week, clean, pink and smooth new gum tissue emerges from underneath.
