Is It Possible To Remove Circular Birthmarks On Neck?

I noticed what seemed to be two very circular birthmarks (light brown) 1 year ago christmas time on my neck. having never noticed these before i wondered what they could have been. I did a search ages ago to find no result. upon more recently i ve noticed they still persiste to this day. They seem to be slightly dryer than my normal skin as its slightly flakey and two very smaller versions down my shoulder seem to be making an appearance.

Dermatologist,  's  Response
hi,
thank you for posting on HCM.
as per your history, you may have melanocytic nevus or cafe at lait spots.
- do not worry.
- nevus is congenital birth mark.
- cafe at lait spots can occur normally.
- I would suggest you to check yourselves, if there are only 2 or still more.
- you can go for lasers to lighten them, but only after consulting a dermatologist.
- also, you may apply enmoist cream twice a day for dryness.
wishing you a healthy skin.
thank you
