What are Birthmarks?

Pigmented birthmarks like cafe-au-lait marks are pigmented spots usually present from the time of birth. They are comprised of giant melanosomes (cells) that contain an abnormally high density of melanin - the pigment that creates the color in your skin.

Causes of Pigmented Birthmarks

It is not known why some of us have these birthmarks and others do not, but it is known that their occurrence is higher in darker skinned individuals like Hispanics, Asians and African Americans.

Types of Birthmarks

Congenital moles (nevi): This type of birthmark can very in shape and size but most are dark or brown colored. They are found on all areas of the body. If you have moles of this type that are raised, then we may not be able to treat them as we normally do not treat any raised lesions.

Café-au-lait spots: This type of birthmark is usually flat and smooth. They are often oval shaped and are light brown or a bit darker in color. They are most often found on the torso, buttocks or legs.
