My little niece is almost four months old and has a hemangioma, how should it be treated?

Patient's question:

My little niece is almost four months old. She has smaller hemangiomas on both the inside and outside of her upper lip, and one on her back that is about the size of a thumb. These were present from birth. How can the treatment be completed more easily to minimize the suffering for the child?

Doctor's answer:

It is recommended to undergo vascular surgery. Vascular tumors can be examined first, followed by further examination. Upon diagnosis, laser surgery can be chosen to achieve therapeutic effects. Post-surgery, it is also important to note that there will be a certain degree of trauma, and the wound should not become infected. Additionally, attention should be paid to diet.
Vascular tumors can be treated using laser surgery or cryotherapy. Both methods are common and have very significant effects.
