Pediatrician 's  Response
Hello. I just read through your question.
Hemangiomas typically get larger during the first six months if life. Then over the following few years, the hemangioma fades. There would be nothing to do at this time other than wait. In most cases the hemangioma disappears completely on its own.
I find this answer helpful
