Ex On The Beach star Helen Briggs revealed her daughter Ocean had a birthmark on her chest removed after it grew bigger and darker.
Helen took to Instagram to share a video of her two-year-old's journey and urged parents to look out for changes in birthmarks.
Her daughter, who she shares with boyfriend Chet Johnson, was born with the birthmark, but it began changing at the beginning of this year.
She revealed a black dot even appeared on the mark.
The reality star said: "Hey guys, I just wanted to pop on here & explain a little what Ocean had done at @greatormondst in London.
"Ocean was born with a birthmark on her chest which never bothered her or us but over the past 6 months, a black dot appeared which grew bigger & darker along with her birthmark (it’s really changed shape since she was born).
"I took her to the doctors about it who we’re a little unsure what it was, so they advised us to get it removed & have a biopsy on it so here we are today in London visiting for 2 days. She was so brave & is recovering so well."
She went on to explain how the process of initially going to the doctors for the check-up to having the birthmark removed only took one month.
"I just wanted to make parents aware if you ever have doubts please please go see a doctor and get some advice. Ocean is absolutely fine & still her cheeky happy self," she said.
"I just wanted to thank all the nurses and doctors at Great Ormond Street, they were absolutely wonderful, so kind & helpful I trusted them with my daughter & they didn’t disappoint so thank you. we are still waiting on the results and will update you all when we know more."
