A hemangioma is a reddish purple benign tumor made up of blood vessels found on the skin. Many hemangiomas are found on the neck or face. Some of them are not treated if they are superficial. However, other more invasive hemangiomas may be treated with laser treatments or injected with steroids. Some over time may go away on their own.
