Removal of a birthmark is considered minor procedure....It is normally done under local anesthetic which does tend to sting like a bee or even a wasp, depending on your pain tolerance, for a few seconds, then after that you will not feel any pain...if being biopsied only (normally only the top two layers are removed: dermis and epidermis and sent to the lab for analysis, at the end it will look like a scrape)...Dermatologist normally like biopsies first to determine what they are dealing with and if further treatment is needed....if it is a rather large deep birthmark they may take all skin layers and this will require stitches....Well Good Luck...
