        Preparing for Your Birthmarks Appointment

          Treatment Safety & Local Regulations

          Treatment discomfort depends on the method. Laser treatment feels like elastic band snaps. Topical anaesthetic is often used, especially in kids.

          Safety depends on correct diagnosis and experienced use of lasers. Pigmented birthmarks should always be assessed carefully to rule out melanoma risk before treatment.

            Theres no single NICE guideline covering all birthmarks, but dermatology standards and BAD guidance apply depending on type.

              Healthcare Inspectorate Wales (HIW) for regulated independent healthcare services in Wales
