However, research has revealed the causes of some types of birthmarks to be abnormalities in blood vessels during fetal development. Pigmented birthmarks are also believed to occur as a result of an overgrowth of pigment cells in the skin.<\/p>\n<p>Some birthmarks are also passed down through genetics. In this case, you find that many family members of a certain lineage carry identical birthmarks.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Types of birthmarks<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>There are two major types of birthmarks, which are also broken down into different types. They include;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Vascular birthmarks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Hemangiomas:<\/strong> these belong to the vascular birthmarks category and are characterized by red or purple growths that are slightly raised. They are believed to be caused by an abnormal buildup of blood vessels in the skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Port-wine stains:<\/strong>\u00a0these types of birthmarks are categorized by pink, red, or purple marks that appear to be flat. They are also believed to be caused by abnormal blood vessels near the surface of the skin.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Salmon patches<\/strong>; these are also called Angel&#8217;s Kisses or Stork Bites and are characterized by flat, light pink, or red patches that appear on the forehead, eyelids, and\/or the back of the neck.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pigmented birthmarks<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Caf\u00e9-au-Lait Spots:<\/strong>\u00a0Caf\u00e9-au-Lait spots appear to be light brown patches that occur in different sizes and can be found on any part of the body.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mongolian Spots:<\/strong>\u00a0these types of birthmarks are characterized by bruise-like marks and are often found on the back or buttocks. They are more common in individuals with darker skin tones.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Congenital melanocytic nevi:<\/strong>\u00a0these are commonly referred to as moles and are usually brown or dark spots. They can vary in size and shape.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Birthmark removal treatment <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><strong>The Esthetic Clinics<\/strong> offer multiple different types of birthmark removal procedures, including:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Topical treatments:<\/strong>\u00a0these are the easiest and most convenient <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rinkykapoor.com\/best-birthmark-removal-treatment-mumbai.html\">birthmark removal treatments<\/a> for less prominent birthmarks. They include ointments and oils such as bleaching creams and retinoid creams that are applied consistently to gradually lighten pigmentation and birthmarks.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Laser therapy:<\/strong>\u00a0laser treatments are a common and effective procedure to remove vascular birthmarks. The practitioner uses a laser and focuses the light energy on the targeted and precise birthmark area to break down blood vessels without damaging the surrounding tissues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Surgical excision:<\/strong>\u00a0some types of birthmarks may require surgical excision for complete removal.
