Laser therapy in lip hemangioma: A case report

Hemangioma is a benign vascular lesion, which is common in the head and neck but rare in the oral cavity. Oral hemangioma presents as a smooth, soft, painless mass, which may be sessile or pedunculated in any size. However, most of the lesions will diminish spontaneously. Several therapeutic approaches are used for hemangiomas, such as cautery, cryotherapy, laser therapy, and sclerosing agents. Herein, we reported the case of a ۳۶-year-old female who had a swelling on the top of her upper lip since birth. We proposed laser therapy as an efficient treatment plan because of its benefits, such as the achievement of coagulation, comfort for both practitioner and patient, and esthetic advantages. Moreover, this approach eliminates the chance of recurrence if performed perfectly.
