Information from Bach Mai Hospital said that a baby girl had a large black birthmark covering almost the entire left half of her face right after birth. This big difference in her appearance was a real shock to her entire family.
Having to run around in many places and receive many refusals of treatment from doctors, the parents sometimes felt helpless and resigned to fate.

Luckily, my family accidentally found out about Associate Professor, Dr. Pham Thi Viet Dung. After carefully examining the lesion, Dr. Dung determined that this was an extremely complicated case of congenital melanocytic nevus, even for an experienced plastic surgeon.
The cystic fibrosis occupies half of the face, involves many anatomical units, is very large in size, and the child is still very young, so it is urgent to resolve the entire lesion as soon as possible to avoid leaving serious psychological effects when the child has an awareness of his or her own body shape.
The surgery was meticulously planned, through many stages, the previous surgery both partially resolved the damage and facilitated the next surgery to ensure progress.
Four surgeries were four arduous journeys, combining the child's great courage, the family's perseverance and determination, as well as the efforts and dedication of the doctors and team.
The final result, although not perfect, is enough for my child to confidently go to school like his peers.
The greatest and simplest happiness has come to you and your parents: you are healthy, strong and confident to go to school like other children of the same age!
