Can birthmarks be removed?
Answered by admin
Question:
I’ve heard that birthmarks can’t be removed but they can be lightened in color. If this is true, how significantly improved can you expect them to be and do you need ongoing treatment forever.
Answer:
The most common birthmark we treat is a portwine stain birthmark. This is usually best treated with the pulsed dye laser. Optimal results are achieved if treatment is begun within the first several months of life.
