Does laser treatment of hemangioma hurt?

Laser treatment for hemangioma is definitely painful because the principle of laser treatment is to treat hemangioma by causing damage to some hemangioma cells and tissues and collapse of the canal wall through the heat energy generated by the laser. The principle of laser treatment determines that it will definitely cause pain. However, there are many ways to relieve the pain, such as applying a topical anesthetic, i.e., a topical anesthetic cream, half an hour before the laser treatment, which can produce a good analgesic effect. After the laser is done, cold compresses, masks, etc. should be applied. If pain does exist after the procedure, oral painkillers can also be taken. There are also post-operative treatments to repair the trauma, including growth factors and preventing infection. The sooner the trauma heals, the sooner the pain will end. So there is definitely pain associated with the treatment of hemangiomas, especially facial hemangiomas, but there are ways to manage the pain. Of course, each person has a different level of pain sensitivity, also known as a different pain threshold. If the pain is particularly intense and unbearable after laser treatment, you can seek medical attention and take appropriate treatment.
