I donâ€™t have a birthmarkâ€”only one in 10 children are born with vascular birthmarks. In some cases, birthmarks are obvious and can cause malformation, where medical intervention is needed. But most often, run-of-the-mill birthmarks just leave an interesting story to tell and a cool bragging right to show your friends around the pool at summer camp.

I remember that when I was a kid, I was so jealous of friends who had birthmarks. I definitely felt like I was missing out since I wanted to be special like they were. I am most certainly not being sarcastic; I really was jealous of friends with birthmarks as a kid.
