Asked By:supercharged

A birthmark (about size of quarter) is present on the upper rear of the scalp. Possibly hemangioma or sebaceous naevus ? What options are there to remove it and costs? And will hair grow again there? Here is picture of it: http://i.imgur.com/tNiNupI.jpg Here is an image I found on google of a similar thing being fixed. Is something like this possible for me? http://i.imgur.com/p7pqeGT.jpg
