Introduction
Superficial and localized hemangiomas, such as small strawberry-like hemangiomas on the skin surface, can be completely removed through treatment methods such as laser therapy and medication, with low recurrence rates, and normal appearance and function can be restored after treatment, achieving a curative effect. If the hemangioma is located deep within the tissue, involves important structures such as bones and nerves, or is multiple or malignant in type.
In general, some types of hemangiomas can be completely cured through standardized treatment. However, complex hemangiomas or those involving vital organs are difficult to cure completely. If any abnormalities are noticed, timely medical consultation is recommended. Detailed explanation is as follows:
Superficial and localized hemangiomas, such as small strawberry-like hemangiomas on the skin surface, can achieve complete removal of the affected tissue through treatments like laser therapy and medication. These treatments result in low recurrence rates and enable restoration of normal appearance and function, achieving a curative effect.
If the hemangioma is deeply located, involves critical structures such as bones or nerves, or is multiple or malignant in nature, treatment must balance the need to protect normal tissues. Complete removal of the lesion becomes difficult, and recurrence is possible. Long-term follow-up and ongoing interventions may be necessary to manage the condition.
It is important to seek specialist consultation promptly upon discovering a hemangioma, to determine its type and extent. Treatment options should be selected according to medical advice to avoid delays that could lead to lesion expansion and increased treatment difficulty.
