Quinn's Birthmark

Quinn went to see the dermatologist today, recommended by Dr Becknell. She is up to 22 lbs & 29"!!

The dr was great, Quinn thought he was hysterical. He said her birthmark was Nevus Sebaceus & should be removed between when she is 8 - 11 years old. This type of birthmark often turns to skin cancer during the adolescent years and because it is mostly hidden, they will want to remove it as a precaution. We will have it checked out again next year, just to check for any progress.

He also checked out her eczema & deemed it as normal. He gave us a prescription to help clear it up when it is active, but he said there isn't much else to do for it.

All in all a good visit!
