Before Treatment and After 3rd LaserTreatment (at 18 weeks)

Hemangiomas are nonmalignant tumors of vascular endothelium generally appearing in infancy. Most hemangiomas develop in the head and neck region, and more commonl on girls and premature infants. Up to 10% of all year-old infants demonstrate hemangiomas somewhere on their bodies. The cause of hemangiomas has not been determined. Children and infants are referred by Dr. Sikorski to Beckman Laser Institute where appropriate skilled pediatric staff are available..

There are three types of hemangiomas:

Superficial—hemangiomas that are flat and reddish in color.
Deep—hemangiomas that are situated beneath the skin and bluish in color.
Compound—hemangiomas that exhibit the clinical characteristics of both superficial and deep hemangiomas.
