Was given phototherapy for mild jaundice after birth.Around 2 months age, a large, but light birthmark( in different shades) was seen on her cheek. Doctor says its harmless & will fade arnd 12 yrs of age. How can I lighten it or remove it with natural remedies without harming her skin

No natural remedies or home remedies are safe for a small baby. Don't hurry, keep patience. Home remedies land up in irreversible n resistant damages.
Health Tips
Use mild soap and good moisturizers.
