Just a birthmark!

If you've met Georgie, or you have been very observant of our photographs, you know that she was born with some white spots over her right eyebrow. On one of our first visits to her, our pediatrician referred us to a specialist in pediatric dermatology. Because he's a specialist, it took four months to get in to see him. Well, the appointed day finally came and I am happy to report that Georgie is A-OK. He said immediately that it was a birthmark and then further diagnosed it as Nevus Sebaceous. Because it was at a teaching hospital (Georgetown Univ. Hospital) we also had several residents look at. The doctor said that we don't need to do anything and it will fade away. He also said that at the advent of puberty it may flare up a little bit again and that at that point we may wish to have it removed by a plastic surgeon. We never really were too worried but we're glad to have confirmation that it's just another little unique part of Georgie.
