Does nevus anemicus get better in age or not?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Nevus anemicus: Nevus anemicus generally does not change much with age for many persons. This condiciton is characterized by pale macules of differningsize and shape. They are paler than surrounding skin and cannot be made red by trauma, cold, or heat due to blood vessels within that are more sensitive to the body’s normal vasoconstricting compounds.
