What kind of birth marks and moles should be removed?
Birthmarks can include pigmentation-type marks, such as coffee-colored spots, elevated moles, and “Mongolian spots” that are the flat, grayish patches usually found only in children. Port wine stains, or vascular malformations, can be found anywhere on the body and tend to darken with time. Some individuals consider these items of concern. Finally, there are hemangiomas, which are lesions that develop and can remain for years. No matter what type of birthmark you have, the birthmark removal experts at the Edgewater and Hoboken Cosmetic & Laser Centers will put you at ease about its origin and any health risks it may or may not pose.

How is birthmark removal performed?

Birthmarks close to the surface of the skin, such as port wine stains and hemangiomas, can be removed in this manner.
