Birthmarks are marks on the skin that are present at birth or develop soon after. Birthmarks are generally categorized as:
Port-wine stain birthmarks are vascular birthmarks caused by a high concentration of blood vessels in a particular area. These birthmarks, when found on the forehead, eyelids or side of the face, are mostly associated with an increased risk of glaucoma and seizures.
Coffee-and-cream birthmarks are patches of skin with a high concentration of pigment.
Very often, birthmarks on exposed areas of skin can be embarrassing and uncomfortable. Their removal provides the desired boost to a person’s confidence and well-being.
Until the twentieth century, the technology to remove birthmarks effectively was non-existent. Now with the invention of high-energy pulsing lasers, at Karishma Laser & Cosmetic Clinic, birthmarks can be removed with ease and precision. Consult Dr Sanghvi for birthmark removal treatment in Pune
At Karishma Laser & Cosmetic Clinic, the doctor will first cleanse the area to be treated. A cold press or a local anesthetic may be used to numb the area. A laser beam is targeted to the birthmark and the light penetrates the surface of the skin to lighten it gradually.
Port-wine stain birthmarks become less noticeable and the skin tone is more or less evened out.
In most coffee-and-cream birthmarks, laser treatment can eliminate the mark.
