Is It Dangerous To Have A Birth Mark On The Face?

Hi, I am very interested to contact a dermatologist. I have a problem with my son, he is almost 3 years, he has a birthmark in his face, it appeared when he was 6 months but now it is growing faster . It is light and dark brown color and it is very near the eye. I will send you a photo and I would appreciate if you can tell me if it is dangerous..

Dear Friend
Welcome to Health care magic. I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I will shortly try to help you with my opinion.

Birthmarks are of different types. Most of them are harmless but there are some birthmarks which need evaluation.

I will advice you to send me pic of the birthmark so that i can actually see it . Then only i will be able to comment on it.

Based on the available details, this is my best advice for you.
Stay Healthy.
