Watch | ‘Napalm girl’ from the iconic Vietnam war photo recieves laser treatment

In the photograph that made Kim Phuc a living symbol of the Vietnam war, her burns aren't visible – only her agony as she runs wailing toward the camera, her arms flung away from her body, naked because she has ripped off her burning clothes.More than 40 years later she can hide the scars beneath long sleeves, but that betrays the pain she has endured since that errant napalm strike in 1972.Now she has a new chance to heal – a prospect she once thought possible only in a life after death.
