Question
My child developed a postauricular hemangioma before their first birthday. What treatment options are available? Are there any recommendations or methods?
Answer
Pediatric hemangiomas are often congenital and can resolve or regress before the age of 18. If there is no improvement, it is recommended to seek a dermatology out-patient consultation, considering medication or laser surgery as comprehensive treatment options. It is suggested to consult with a dermatology out-patient for personalized treatment plans. Since the child is still young, it is recommended to observe for a period of time before making a decision.
