1.Do all hemangiomas need to be treated? A: Because hemangioma has the tendency to heal itself, not all hemangiomas need to be treated. We can closely follow up small or superficial hemangiomas. 2.What should I choose if I have hemangioma and continue to observe and treat it? A: Hemangioma has its own growth pattern, generally it starts to appear 7 days to half a month after birth, within 3 months is the growth peak, during this time the area of hemangioma will become larger, the color will become red and protrude from the skin surface; 3-6 months the growth rate slows down, after 6 months is slower, but within 1 year is the growth period of hemangioma, 1 year to 2 years into the stable period, after 2 years into the degeneration period. We advocate that the earlier the hemangioma is treated, the better, so that the hemangioma will not grow up and will be ready for future degeneration.

A: The best treatment time for hemangioma is theoretically the earlier the better, because the earlier the hemangioma has not yet grown, the simpler and least harmful method we can adopt to treat the baby. Do not exceed 6 months at the latest. 4.What are the treatment methods for hemangioma? A: There are many treatment methods for hemangioma, including: physical pressure, application of timolol eye drops; oral medication (propranolol); sclerosing agent (polyglaucine, pinyamycin) injection; interventional surgery (transcatheter sclerosing embolization); laser; freezing; nucleotide and so on. 5.What are the advantages and disadvantages of different methods to treat hemangioma? A: The advantages of applying eye drops are simple, economical and small side effects; oral medication is also a very good method, the advantages are simple, economical and good effect, especially for special parts and multiple hemangiomas, the disadvantages are side effects of medication and longer time; the advantages of sclerotherapy are simple, obvious effect and relatively low cost, the disadvantage is that the injector should master the injection technique and dose; interventional surgery treatment The advantages are good effect, small trauma, no scar, and clear effect for high flow hemangioma, the disadvantage is high cost and need to be hospitalized; laser and freezing are not mainstream treatment methods now, the advantages are clear effect, the disadvantage is relatively high cost and easy to damage normal skin; I do not recommend this method, the disadvantage is very obvious, radioactive, and easy to cause skin pigment loss, affecting the appearance. 6.Which treatment is preferred for hemangioma? Why? A: There are many treatment methods for hemangioma, no one method is the best, only the one that suits your baby is the best. Only the one that is suitable for your baby is the best. The main reason is to choose the right treatment method according to the classification, size and blood supply of your baby’s hemangioma. Even two or three methods of treatment are needed at the same time, so we will propose a personalized treatment plan for each child. 7.Does hemangioma need chemotherapy? A: In general, hemangioma does not require chemotherapy. 8.Can all hemangiomas be treated with chemotherapy? A: No. 9.When should chemotherapy be used to treat hemangioma? A: When we cannot control the growth of hemangioma with conventional methods or cannot achieve satisfactory results, we consider using chemotherapy drugs. 10.What are the common chemotherapeutic drugs for hemangioma treatment? A: The most common chemotherapeutic drugs are vincristine and pinyamycin. 11.How are chemotherapeutic drugs administered in the treatment of hemangioma? A: There are two kinds: one is through the blood vessel, intra-arterial administration; and the other is local injection. 12.What are the precautions for patients when local injection therapy is carried out for hemangioma? A: When local injection treatment is performed, the risk is generally not great. The main thing to pay attention to is the color of the hemangioma after injection, if the drug is over-injected, the color of the tumor will turn black. 13.Will the local injection treatment of hemangioma leave scars? A: Generally speaking, no scars will be left behind, as long as the injection is not excessive and causes ulceration.
