If you have a vascular lesion, chances are you have nothing to worry about. However, vascular lesions sometimes cause serious side effects when they begin to spread. The expert team at Lake Jackson Medical Spa<\/a> specializes in treating vascular lesions. They can assess the treatment option best suited to help you stay healthy and safe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are vascular lesions?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Vascular lesions are the most common type of skin abnormality. They\u2019re the result of blood vessel growth underneath the surface of the skin, and they usually appear shortly after birth. Lesions may appear in a number of forms: wounds, sores, ulcers, and tumors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t have to worry about them most of the time. They\u2019re usually benign and require no treatment from a doctor. Vascular lesions can be a serious problem when they spread in certain areas of your body, and this can result in a number of medical complications. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of vascular lesions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There are mainly two types of vascular lesions we diagnose: hemangiomas and vascular malformation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hemangiomas<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Hemangiomas are benign tumors that line blood vessels. They appear red, rubbery, and sometimes stick out from the skin. You\u2019re more likely to experience this type of vascular lesion during childhood, and it can appear anywhere on your body. It usually appears on the face, scalp, chest, or back. Over the course of a few months, the lesion tends to grow and darken. Then it stabilizes and eventually shrinks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most vascular lesions disappear completely by the time a child reaches age 10. If a child has a hemangioma near one of their eyes or ears, we highly recommend seeking treatment because this can often lead to permanent blindness or deafness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Vascular malformation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Vascular malformations appear at birth, but they become more apparent later in life. These malformations create abnormal growth in veins, lymph vessels, arteries, and capillaries. Some of these malformations include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
