Infantile hemangioma: For growing infantile type hemangiomas in babies, the treatment of choice is oral propranolol. This is far superior in efficacy and safety to steroids or invasive surgical options. The hemangioma will always stop growing immediately and many will begin to shrink rapidly, but this medication is really only for hemangiomas in babies, generally under a year of age.
