Will Hemangiomas Change?
Hemangiomas can grow for up to 10 months and then usually begin a long, slow fading or regression known as “involution”. This involution can last from 3 to 10 years. While most hemangiomas eventually involute, the time to involution and the end result is not always acceptable, as it can leave a residual mass or scar. Early intervention can reduce the need for corrective surgery after involution has occurred.
