its nothing to worry about. they usually grow for sometime n then stop. just keep a close follow up on the size and get consultation if any second hemangioma appears

I heard beta blockers treatment is very effective but no one is giving me green signal for this .just recommend to monitor it closely.i what an opinion that when do laser treatment should start or and topical cream I can apply?

Hopefully this is isolated hemangioma. Sometimes it regress with time. One medical treatment is to give Propranolol for few months two to three times a day. And when size regressed it is excised surgically by plastic surgeon

No need to worry,it isn’t going to cause any problem medically .It will gradually become lighter and may disappear in couple of years.You can consult a pediatric surgeon or a plastic surgeon if you are concerned cosmetically.
