Greetings. I do not think it is a birthmark in strict terms. It may be caused by trauma during delivery when forceps method is used and may be apprehended as birth mark. Treatment is simple and requires fractional CO2 lasers in multiple sessions.
Next Steps
Fractional CO2 lasers work best for scars.
Health Tips
Avoid Self Medications.
