observation ("watchful waiting"), treatment with steroids during the proliferation stage to shrink the tumor and speed the involution process, and laser surgery techniques
Aftercare for a hemangioma excision involves wound care and maintenance such as changing of bandages
Hemangioma excision is a surgical procedure to remove a hemangioma, which is a type of benign blood vessel tumor that can appear as a raised or discolored birthmark on the skin. The excision involves cutting out the hemangioma from the surrounding tissue to remove it completely. This procedure can help improve the appearance of the skin and prevent potential complications associated with the hemangioma.

The procedure is generally performed by plastic surgeons and, except for extremely small lesions, is done on an inpatient basis in a hospital operating room .
Completely normal appearance after surgery is very rare. However, for significantly disfiguring tumors or those that impact physical function
Alternatives to aspiration and excision in the treatment of ganglion cysts include watchful waiting and resting the affected hand or foot
Morbidity and mortality resulting from this surgery is close to zero, particularly because of the new surgical techniques and tools that prevent intra-operative bleeding of the tumor.
bleeding during the operation, as these tumors are comprised of abnormal blood vessels. Surgeons often utilize special surgical tools to reduce this risk, including thermoscalpels
Laser treatment and Loop electrocautery excision procedure (LEEP).
