Treatment of infantile hemangioma with intense pulsed-light: a case report

A five-month-old boy with skin phototype IV was successfully treated for a large infantile hemangioma on his left antecubital fossa with three intense pulsed-light treatments at 4-week interval. The lesion regressed approximately 90% without any side effects leading us to say that intense pulsed-light is a safe and effective modality for treatment of infantile hemangioma in Asian patients.
