Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Vascular birthmarks, which appear as a patch of redness after a baby is born, can either be flat against the skin or raised above it. Laser birthmark removal works based on selective photothermal action, targeting hemoglobin in the blood vessels specifically. This causes the blood vessels to heat up and be destroyed, while the surrounding skin tissues remain undamaged. As a result, the dilated blood vessels are removed without leaving any trace, restoring the skin to its smooth and bright appearance.
