Summary

RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as imiquimod, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Laser therapy uses light to kill tumor cells. Giving imiquimod together with laser therapy may kill more tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects of imiquimod and laser therapy with or without a green dye in treating patients with stage III or stage IV melanoma that has spread to other parts of the skin.
