What is a Birthmark?
A birthmark is an area that is different in color or texture than the rest of your skin. It can appear anywhere on your skin and is visible at or soon after birth. Although birthmarks can be harmless, they should be examined in babies as soon as they are noticed. A birthmark can be an indication of an underlying illness. A birthmark can often cause self-consciousness in patients due to its size or placement. Laser & Skin Surgery Center of Pennsylvania proudly offers birthmark examinations and relevant treatments for all ages, including infants, adolescents, and adults. Please reach out to our Devon, PA practice to schedule a birthmark exam for you or your child.
How Are Birthmarks Treated?
Once we assess the birthmark during a thorough skin examination, we will go over available and relevant treatment options. Laser therapy can help to fade the darkness of certain pigmented birthmarks as well as the redness of certain vascular birthmarks so that they are not as visible. Medications like timolol, corticosteroids, or propranolol may be prescribed to help shrink some types of vascular birthmarks. At Laser & Skin Surgery Center of Pennsylvania, we use a very gentle, delicate approach to treat birthmarks while minimizing scarring.

Birthmark Treatment Reviews
Great practice , very clean c, very professional staff & Great results. I do the birthmark removal and I’ve seen great results in the couple of sessions I’ve done.
Being seen for laser treatment for my port wine stain. I travel about 1.5 hours from my residence because there aren’t doctors in my area that have the experience that Dr Wang has. Dr Wang is kind, patient, competent and experienced. I’m very pleased with the results.
