On day 6 after laser resurfacing, the oozing has stopped, the redness has faded a tiny bit, I am peeling a little and itching a lot, but my biggest concern is the blotchiness that has appeared. My skin has light spots, darker pink spots, and red areas. I have no idea of what the normal healing process is, but I am very worried about the blotchy skin. Will this fade in time or is something wrong?

Typically birthmarks grow in proportion to body growth. Some of these are premalignant and can eventually turn into a skin cancer . For example Nevus sebaceous is a hairless birthmark often found on the scalp and always should be removed to prevent this from happening in the future.
