Newborn baby forehead birthmark

Newborn baby forehead birthmark

Many babies are born with birthmarks, some on the body, and some in more obvious places on the face or forehead. Some birthmarks will fade as the baby grows, while some will become larger, which will affect the appearance of the face. However, parents should not rush to remove birthmarks for their babies. Generally, birthmarks can be removed with laser. Newborn babies are not suitable for laser surgery and can be removed when the baby grows up.

① The possibility of birthmarks fading is not very high. Birthmarks are caused by severe deficiency of trace elements such as zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium, and phenylalanine and tyrosine in the serum of pigment cells, which affects the biochemical process of pigment synthesis, causing abnormal increase in pigment secretion by pigment cells, which gradually spreads to the epidermis through nerve transmission to form plaques.

②Birthmarks are common in babies. They are usually harmless and often temporary. The main cause of birthmark formation is the severe deficiency of trace elements such as zinc, copper, calcium, magnesium and phenylalanine and tyrosine in human serum, which affects the biochemical process of pigment synthesis and leads to an abnormal increase in pigment cells. Some birthmarks will gradually fade and disappear as the baby grows up, but some birthmarks will not, but can be removed through laser surgery when the baby grows up.

③There are many types of birthmarks, which usually need to be removed after the age of three or four. Now they can generally be removed with laser, and basically no scars will be left. Although laser birthmark removal is effective, it requires a certain amount of cost and treatment, and not every birthmark is suitable for laser removal. It is recommended to consult a professional physician with experience in laser cosmetic surgery to make an accurate diagnosis, determine the impact of the birthmark on the body, and the effectiveness of laser treatment.

④ If it is superficial skin damage such as freckles, capillary dilation, etc., laser can be used to remove them quickly and the effect is also very obvious. For some black birthmarks, generally 4-6 laser treatments are enough to restore the patient's skin to normal. Laser therapy is also very effective in treating skin vascular diseases such as port-wine stains. However, we must remind everyone that no matter what technology is used, scars cannot be completely avoided, so postoperative care must be done after treatment. It is important to protect the wound surface and avoid sun exposure, otherwise it will affect the effect of the operation.
