It's a very small cherry angioma about 1/2" under her eye.
A cherry angioma is a very small vascular spot and treatment with the pulsed dye laser is safe, effective and usually a "one-shot-deal" -- no sedation is required. Typically, the baby can be restrained for just a few seconds in a papoose or held in the arms of his/her parents or guardians. It is important to protect the baby's eyes, which are covered with goggles or a blindfold. It is normal that the baby may cry during the procedure, but it is over very quickly and at 10 months old, the child will never remember the experience.
