Patient's question:
What should be done about the birthmark on the baby's face, where is the best place to treat it? There is a small birthmark at the corner of the right eye. My friend said it can be removed directly with traditional Chinese medicine. I'm not sure if that's true.Doctor's answer:
Small birthmarks can be monitored, and if they show a tendency to grow, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly. Large birthmarks can be considered for removal through laser surgery at a reputable plastic surgery medical institution. They are commonly found on the buttocks or waist. They are often light blue, but can also be blue-gray or blue-black. These birthmarks resemble bruises and are very common in people of Asian descent, usually gradually fading before school age.
