An exploration of optimal time and safety of 595-nm pulsed dye laser for the treatment of early superficial infantile hemangioma.

Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most common benign vascular tumor that occurs in infants and young children. Studies have shown laser therapy to reduce the proliferation of superficial IH and promote its regression, but the optimal timing for treatment has not been determined. Our study explores the timing and safety of 595-nm pulsed dye laser (PDL) treatment for early superficial IH.
