Can red birthmarks go away on their own? Pay attention to treatment

Red birthmarks are present at birth and are a common congenital disease in clinical practice. Many people want to know whether red birthmarks can disappear on their own. Generally speaking, red birthmarks can be controlled through early treatment, which can also prevent them from continuing to grow.

1. Can red birthmarks be removed?

Red birthmarks can be removed. Generally speaking, red and black birthmarks are the easiest to remove, while blue is the least difficult to remove. However, if you want to remove red birthmarks, you must undergo laser surgery in early childhood, before school age, and it can be removed. After a long time, it becomes more difficult to remove birthmarks, but it does not mean that adults cannot remove birthmarks. It’s just that it is not as easy to remove and recover as in childhood. Some birthmarks will gradually fade away as you age, but some birthmarks will gradually become more and more.

2. Laser treatment

Laser treatment can be used to remove birthmarks. Red birthmarks are capillary hemangiomas, port-wine stains, and the best treatment is the new generation of photodynamic therapy, which leaves no scars and does not recur after healing. However, if you want to remove birthmarks without surgery, it is a bit difficult. Laser surgery is currently the best way to remove birthmarks, but the price is also relatively expensive.

3. Others

Birthmarks are medically called maternal spots or moles. They are abnormal proliferation of skin tissue during development, resulting in abnormal shapes and colors on the skin surface. Birthmarks may be found at birth or may only appear slowly after a few months of birth. It is better to treat birthmarks during childhood rather than removing them as adults.

4. Notes:

Laser treatment is effective, but it is relatively expensive. It is recommended that you go to a regular birthmark removal hospital for consultation first. You can listen to the doctor's advice first, and then decide whether to remove the birthmark. Anyway, the best way to remove birthmarks currently is laser treatment.
