Birthmarks are coloured spots on the skin that are typically present at birth or develop shortly afterward. These skin markings can range in colour, size, and shape. Some birthmarks are subtle; others may be more noticeable and distinct. Although most birthmarks are harmless, understanding their characteristics can help determine if a birthmark requires closer attention from a licensed and qualified dermatologist.
Birthmarks are caused by an excess of cells [1] or blood vessels in the skin. They appear when certain pigments or cells cluster in specific areas, giving the skin a distinct colour or texture. There are two main types of birthmarks, which are:
Although the exact causes why these clusters of cells are formed are unknown, it is widely believed that genetics [2] and certain prenatal factors do play a role.

Although most birthmarks are harmless, and pose no medical concern, some may require closer observation as they can occasionally signal underlying health issues, such as skin cancer. In fact, some of the signs that warrant medical advice from a licensed dermatologist include:
It is important to note that certain birthmarks, such as large congenital melanocytic naevi, may carry a slightly higher risk of melanoma, which is a type of skin cancer. While the risk is still relatively low, it is crucial to monitor these birthmarks regularly. Additionally, pigmented birthmarks that appear uneven in colour, or texture can sometimes mimic melanoma. Should you have any concerns, please consult a doctor for peace of mind.
Vascular birthmarks, like port-wine stains, on the other hand, are generally non-cancerous but should still be assessed for complications, particularly if they involve sensitive areas like the eyes.
While many birthmarks are harmless and do not require treatment, some people choose to reduce or remove them due to cosmetic reasons or health concerns. The treatment options vary depending on the type, size, and location of the birthmark.
Generally, birthmarks are often treated with topical treatments or dermatological procedures.
Most birthmarks are typically present at birth or appear shortly afterward and are not influenced by lifestyle or environmental factors.
However, it is important to note that monitoring your birthmarks and protecting your skin from excessive sun exposure can help reduce the risk of complications. In fact, if you notice any changes in your birthmarks, it is highly encouraged to have them examined by a licensed and qualified dermatologist.
At Livingstone Dermatology, we strive to offer top-quality services while prioritising our clients’ comfort. Get in touch with us today to schedule an appointment and have access to a personalised treatment plan to achieve your hair and skin goals.

In such instances, routine monitoring by a dermatologist is often recommended to guarantee timely intervention and a more positive post-treatment outcome.

Baby acne usually develops within the first few weeks after birth, while exhibiting the following symptoms:

How common are newborn rashes?
Newborn rashes are extremely common, affecting most newborns at some point during the first few weeks, or months of life. As a newborn’s skin is still adjusting to the outside environment, it is more sensitive, and prone to rashes.
Can newborn rashes be prevented?
While some newborn rashes are unavoidable due to the newborn’s sensitive skin, and adapting immune system, parents can minimise their occurrence by practicing good skincare, and hygiene. This includes using gentle, and fragrance-free products, avoiding overdressing the newborn to prevent sweating, keeping the skin moisturised, and regularly changing wet diapers.
However, rashes that are hormone-induced, such as erythema toxicum rash, are not preventable.
What are the differences between newborn rashes, and birthmarks?
Newborn rashes are typically temporary, and may come and go. On the other hand, birthmarks are usually present at birth, or appear shortly after birth, and are more permanent.
Rashes can appear as red, raised, or inflamed spots, and are often caused by irritation, allergies, or infections. In contrast, birthmarks, such as port-wine stains, and hemangiomas, are areas of skin discolouration that are usually harmless. Additionally, they do not change much in appearance over time.
How long do newborn rashes usually last?
The duration of newborn rashes can vary depending on their type. While most newborn rashes clear up within a couple of weeks, some may last for several months.
Are there any complications associated with newborn rashes?
Most newborn rashes are benign, and self-limiting. However, if a rash is associated with other symptoms such as fever, fussiness, poor feeding or latching, appears infected (oozing with pus), it may indicate a more serious condition.
In the event parents notice these symptoms, then we encourage you to seek medical attention immediately.
What are some of the warning signs that I should pay attention to?
Some of the warning signs that parents should take note of are:
If any of these symptoms are present, then do seek medical help immediately.
