I have a birthmark on my cheek on the beard area. Would laser treatment affect my beard growth? (Photo)

Question

I have a birthmark on my right cheek on the beard area more like "Café au Lait Spots", and wanted to know if that can be treatable or not. Will it affect my beard growth after treatment?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

For unique cases where a variety of modalities could be used to treat the condition, I would suggest an in-person or virtual consultation to develop a custom and effective treatment plan.  It is difficult to precisely define the best option without collecting the same information. I suggest reaching out to an expert for a consultation with surgical and non-surgical methods to get a comprehensive option. Best, Dr. Emer.
