Actually, it started with a red dot after a month, on her 2 months it became bluish and more visible. we consulted a pedia derma and she confirmed that it is indeed hemangioma but unsure what type it is. she undergone one laser session treatment last june 12 already but i did not see any improvement. her nose became evenmore bigger and darker. this coming saturday she will undergo another laser treatment. but i am unsure whether to pursue it or not as i can't see any positive effect. i am attaching two pictures here, one when it was just a red dot, about 1 mos, and one which was taken recently at 3 1/2 months. hopefully, her doctor is familiar with propranolol medications. I inquire in a doctor from texas thru email and suggested to have propranolol med. btw we are here in philippines, sad to say only few pedia derma expert here. |
Hi
We are Malaysian.We went Philippine at National Children Hospital, surgery was doned by Dr Marcelo Hochman-US doctor when my baby was 8 moths old.My baby H is same as yours, you may watch it under facebook search for nose hemangioma or
nosehemangioma@gmail.com.
NCH doctor told me they never do surgery for hemangioma and doctor Hochman had trained them up.I saw a lot of age 6-12 philippine children with big big serious H , their parents claimed they cant find doctor to cure them.Lastly, they met Dr Hochman.He did operation on 8 childrens per day for 3 consecutive days.He is great.
