Hi, my daughter is 12 months old and also has a big facial hemangioma. We have been thinking of a way to remove, she might have issues because of it later in life. But the doctors said that we should wait because there is a big chance it will reduce on its own. Can something go wrong with the facial hemangiomas in a child?
Facial hemagioma is a benign tumor of the blood vessels. In the case of your child, it really is on the visible spot and it might represent a problem. But the good news is that one you have already mentioned, they might reduce to insignificant mark in time. So perhaps it would be for the best to leave it as it is for couple of years and then see what happens.
