How is an infant mixed superficial hemangioma treated?

Patient's question:

My daughter was born a few days ago. When she was born, everyone was shocked to see her for the first time. The reason was that she had many red birthmarks on her face. Later, after examination, it was found that she suffered from infant mixed superficial hemangioma. How should it be treated?

Doctor's answer:

This situation is primarily treated with laser therapy. Currently, these children are relatively young. It is recommended that they do not need treatment for the time being. Mainly, regular check-ups should be conducted to see if the number of cases gradually increases. Typically, as age increases, the condition may gradually worsen. In severe cases, surgical treatment can only be chosen. For smaller cases, laser treatment can be applied. In the future, skin care should also be done to prevent the recurrence of this disease.
