In general, birthmarks are caused by abnormal proliferation of skin tissue. Nowadays, many children may have birthmarks on their faces or bodies at birth, which not only affects their appearance but also affects their mental health as they age. So, if you want to remove birthmarks, should you go to a dermatologist or a vascular specialist?
If a baby has a birthmark that needs treatment, it is recommended that parents take them to a regular hospital's dermatology department for a detailed examination, confirm the type of birthmark, and receive targeted treatment. Although birthmarks generally do not have any impact on human health, it cannot be ruled out that some birthmarks may develop lesions over time. To prevent this situation, parents should be vigilant and take their babies to the hospital for relevant examinations as soon as possible.
At present, there are many methods to eliminate birthmarks, but due to different patient conditions, the treatment options chosen are also different. Among them, laser therapy is a commonly used treatment method, which is highly favored by patients due to its short surgical time and significant effects. For those super large birthmarks, surgical treatment may be necessary, depending on the patient's physical condition.
During the recovery period of birthmark treatment, parents must do a good job of sun protection for their babies, especially paying attention to the sun protection of the skin, in order to reduce pigmentation in the body and avoid the recurrence of birthmarks. In addition, it is necessary to maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the birthmark treatment site, and not rush to peel off the scab by hand to avoid leaving scars.
