Brief Answer:
Wait and observe.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query and understand your concern. Most often hemangiomas gradually subside/fade with time. I understand that the shape is not exactly like that of others but I would not recommend surgery. I would rather insist you to wait and watch.
Let me know if I could help further.
