Laser Treatments for Brown Birthmarks

Prominent birthmarks are beautiful and usually harmless, but if you find that yours impacts your confidence, there is a solution. At Berman Skin Institute, it’s our mission to help you feel as comfortable as possible in your own skin, and one of the many ways we do that is through laser birthmark removal. 

Our treatments deliver significant lightening and sometimes total removal of visible birthmarks on the face, neck and body. Learn more about our innovative solution and schedule a consultation with a board-certified dermatologist today.

Berman Skin Institute’s Laser Birthmark Removal Services

Our services take advantage of the powerful Q-Switched ND YAG laser. This state-of-the-art device was designed for tattoo removal, but it also works well at lightening the natural pigment of brown birthmarks, sun spots, age spots and other causes of uneven skin tone.

Your laser birthmark removal will take place over a series of 10-minute appointments, during which we run the laser light over targeted areas. The laser penetrates the dermis and breaks down pigment, including melanocytes — the cells responsible for producing skin pigmentation. Then, these small particles are efficiently processed and flushed out by your body’s natural responses.

The result? In a handful of appointments, your birthmark will be significantly lighter or possibly gone entirely, restoring your confidence.

Who Is a Candidate for Laser Birthmark Removal Treatment?

Berman Skin Institute aims to make our services as accessible as possible. Most people, regardless of skin type or tone, are eligible for Q-Switched ND YAG laser therapy. Notable exceptions include:

  • Very dark skin tones.
  • Freshly tanned skin (treatment is possible once the tan settles and fades).

If these apply to you and you still want to pursue birthmark removal, our practitioners may be able to recommend a different treatment for similar conditions. Regardless of your situation, feel free to reach out and schedule a consultation to see what options await.

How We Do It

During your initial consultation, your practitioner will take note of the type of birthmark you want removed, such as café au lait spots or port wine stains. We will discuss your treatment goals and give you an idea of how many appointments it will take for you to achieve your desired results.

Prior to your treatments, your provider will give you specific advice regarding avoiding sun exposure, makeup and anything else that may affect your results before and after treatment. Most people receive a mild anesthetic to minimize any pain and should expect to see some redness and irritation directly following their appointment.
