Port Wine Stain

Port Wine Stain Treatment at The Laser Institute of Pinehurst


A Port Wine Stain is a type of vascular birthmark that causes a purplish discoloration of the skin. This condition occurs when small blood vessels (capillaries) in the skin dilate excessively. Port Wine Stains typically appear at birth and can darken or thicken over time. They are most commonly found on the face and neck but can appear anywhere on the body. While these birthmarks are harmless, many individuals seek treatment for cosmetic reasons, as Port Wine Stains can be quite noticeable.
