Burn Scar Laser treatment

We have been getting conflicting information regarding the CPT coding for Burn Scar treatment with the use of lasers. We had been coding 17110 or 17111 - Destruction (eg laser surgery etc) of benign lesions other than skin tags or cutaneous vascular proliferative lesions

Our new plastic surgeon has argued that in the case of a keloid scar, the lesion is a cutaneous vascular proliferative lesion so therefore the codes in the 17106-17108 range should be used.


Does anyone have experience with either of these code sets?
