Treatment of hemangiomas and wine stains
A bright red spot on the cheek, a maroon formation on the leg — such vascular manifestations in children frighten parents, even if they do not cause pain. Some formations disappear on their own, others remain for life. But modern medicine offers an effective and gentle solution.
At the Kandinsky Clinic in Dubai, we treat hemangiomas and wine stains using the Candela Vbeam laser, an advanced technology rarely seen even in large medical centers.
What is treated with Candela Vbeam?
Hemangiomas are benign vascular tumors that appear in infants in the first weeks of life. Most often, they look like soft red spots that can grow quickly and appear on the face, head, neck, and torso. In some cases, they pass by themselves, but not always.
Indications for treatment:
- rapid growth;
- risk of functional impairment (for example, if there is a spot near the eye or nose);
- ulceration, bleeding;
- localization in an aesthetically significant area.
Wine stains (Naevus flammeus) — these are congenital vascular anomalies, which are flat areas of pink, red or burgundy skin. They appear at birth, do not go away with time and grow with the child.
With age, the wine stain may become darker, denser to the touch, and slightly rise above the surface of the skin. This makes it more noticeable and can cause aesthetic and psychological discomfort.
Why choose Candela Vbeam?
This laser is considered the "gold standard" in the treatment of hemangiomas and wine spots in children. It acts gently and precisely on dilated blood vessels without damaging the skin around them. The procedure is painless — the built-in cooling system makes it comfortable even for babies.
Advantages:
- Suitable for the youngest;
- It takes only 5-10 minutes.;
- does not require hospitalization;
- recovery is practically not required.;
- the improvement is noticeable after 1-3 procedures.
Treatment with Candela Vbeam is easy — without anesthesia, fear and tears.
When should I start treatment?
The earlier the course starts, the higher the effectiveness.
- Hemangiomas are best treated from 1-2 months of age;
- Wine stains — from 3-6 months.
Early intervention stops the growth of the formation, reduces the risk of ulceration and scarring and improves the final cosmetic result.
