Our son Elliot was born with a facial port wine stain. This blog is to document our journey through doctors appointments, laser treatments, and other things about his wonderful life.

Day 8 post treatment
Spots are looking much lighter, and many have faded almost completely. And Elliot's cold is getting better...yay!
**BTW, Elliot is not always in his carseat. I just find it's the easiest to get a decent picture when he can't squirm all over. Hahah!**

One week post-op
Today marks one week post laser treatment. Two of the dark spots have started to scab, I'm praying that they don't scar. The rest is looking great, but it's really hard to tell if any of the stain is gone because it's still healing. Here's a pic from today...he was trying to feed himself. :)

Picture updates :)
This week has been a long week due to a chest cold running through our house. Here are some pics of the last few days. The spots are getting noticeably lighter. =)
The only discomfort Elliot has felt through this was the first 2 days of swelling, and barely even then. Everything is below the surface so you can't feel anything when you touch it. I kiss his cheek 100x each day like always and never even a flinch. Now if this cold would just go away!
